Italy v England
England play their eagerly awaited first competitive match since becoming the first world champions from the northern hemisphere. Steve Rider is in the Stadio Flaminio in Rome to see how new captain Lawrence Dallaglio fares after taking over from Martin Johnson. The team will be keen to get their quest to become the first
England side to win two Grand Slams on the trot since off to a good start, but will the Italians cause a major upset against a side they have never beaten? Kick-off is at 3.00, with Nick Mullins and Brian Moore in the commentary box.
