Six Nations team of the weekend: Flying schemer who turned England's defence into road-kill, the Welshman who starred even in 43-0 defeat and the man who must start for the Lions

Daily Mail  

The opening weekend of the Six Nations delivered three bonus-point wins and set the tone for a mouth-watering championship. Favourites France dominated Wales on Friday night without having to hit top gear ahead of their trip to Twickenham on Saturday, while Ireland ground England down and then burst through a tired defence at will to stay far enough ahead of a late fightback. And Scotland showed Italy the danger of not finishing your chances as they repelled a number of threatening attacks and rode a Huw Jones hat-trick to start in the perfect fashion ahead of hosting Ireland this week. Home nations players are battling it out not just for Six Nations glory but also their Lions places, while France are trying to knock Ireland off their perch and Italy look as strong as they have ever been. Jamison Gibson-Park, Ireland Antoine Dupont is the obvious pick but France’s golden wonder was operating off the back of an utterly dominant French pack.
