"Just when England were cantering to a comfortable win over Wales, it looked like the most improbable of comebacks was a possibility as George North and Taulupe Faletau scored in the final 10 minutes of the game to turn a 18 point-lead into just four. Eventually there was sweet relief for England when Jack Nowell bundled North into touch but it was an alarming loss of tempo in the final throes of the match. But that can be analysed in the week and England will look to the positives of Maro Itoje's memorable performance while James Haskell was also superb. England will now go to Paris looking for their first Grand Slam since 2003. Twickenham dares to dream. "
After a tense last few moments, it's over and England have the win. Jones' side survived the last 10 minute storm and Wales just turned up too late. Good game of rugby!
