It proved to be an enjoyable day for Scotland, a nervy day for England, a proud yet disappointing day for France and a disastrous day for Ireland as the Six Nations kicked off yesterday. Firstly, all the talk of Scotland being able to beat Ireland actually paid off for once, as they recorded an impressive 27-22 victory at Murrayfield to make a winning start int he Six Nations for just the third time, ending Irish hopes of a Grand Slam in the process.
