Six Nations 2022: What are the fixtures and results so far?

PA Wire

For the first time in nearly two years, fans have returned to the stands for the 2022 Six Nations.

Supporters being back in the six iconic stadiums have enlivened rugby’s grand old continental competition after the previous two editions were held partially or totally behind-closed-doors.

Restrictions in both Scotland and Wales had caused some to call for the relocation of the tournament to a single location but once those were lifted, it was full speed ahead.

The six teams are battling across five rounds in February and March, with the tournament set to be decided by the traditional climax on ‘Super Saturday’ in what is proving to be an exceptionally competitive and hard-fought 128th edition of the competition.

Wales are the reigning champions but suffered a Round 1 defeat to begin their title defence and have come up against a set of stern challengers as England, France, Ireland and Scotland build on encouraging Autumn Nations Series campaigns, while there have been positive signs from a young Italy side hoping to cause a shock.

Here is everything you need to know including all the results so far and the fixtures still to come:

When is the Six Nations?

The Six Nations began on Saturday 5 February, with Ireland beating Wales in Dublin, Scotland edging past England at Murrayfield and France downing Italy in Paris a day later.

The first three rounds took place in February, with Rounds 4 and 5 coming in mid-March, as the 2022 Six Nations concludes with three consecutive matches on ‘Super Saturday’ on 19 March. Wales finish with an encounter against Italy, Ireland host Scotland and England will be in Paris to take on France.
