Six Nations: England's Immanuel Feyi-Waboso in danger of missing entire tournament after suffering hamstring injury in training

Immanuel Feyi-Waboso has been ruled out of England's pivotal clash with Scotland and is in danger of missing the entire Six Nations.

Feyi-Waboso suffered a hamstring injury in training last week, resulting in his withdrawal from the starting XV for Saturday's 48-7 victory over Wales.

Head coach Steve Borthwick is well stocked for wings with Henry Arundell scoring a hat-trick of tries in the round-one showdown at Allianz Stadium and Tom Roebuck making a successful comeback from a broken toe. Tommy Freeman and Elliot Daly are also options.

But England would still want to field their main strike weapon for the attempt to claim a first win at Murrayfield since 2020 and, with the rest of the Championship in mind, will be hoping for a positive update when Feyi-Waboso sees a specialist.

"It looks like Manny will be out for a number of weeks. I don't know how many, but it's a number rather than a single week, which is disappointing," Borthwick said.

"But that's unfortunately the nature of elite sport - there are injuries and then you have to adapt."

Borthwick insists plenty of room for improvement

England's challenge before the Six Nations was clear: reach their round-five clash with France in Paris with a Grand Slam still on the table.

Looking that far ahead, though, is a sure way to derail their ambitions - especially with challenges more difficult than Wales, beginning with Saturday's trip to Murrayfield, looming.

England may enter the Calcutta Cup as holders and Scotland may be reeling from their 18‑15 opening‑round defeat in Italy, but England have not won in Edinburgh since 2020.

That victory came two years before Borthwick's appointment, and the England head coach outlined a number of areas for improvement before travelling to Murrayfield.

"Defensively we were excellent," he said. "We know Wales have got so many dangerous players and pace out wide and we shut them down really well.

"Our kicking game was good and the set‑piece did a good job, but there's plenty of room for improvement. What is really pleasing is we created loads of opportunities and we can get better at converting those.

"Especially in that second half, we didn't convert the opportunities in the manner I would like us to. There is plenty for us to go and work on."

England march on

One game in and England are looking every inch the title contenders talked up inside and outside the camp, with their destructive first half in a savaging of Wales confirmation of their resurgence under Borthwick. Steve Tandy's side were woeful, but England still displayed patience and ruthlessness as they built an unassailable lead.

Tries were left out on the field after the interval, their bench failed to provide any impact and Freeman at outside centre is still a work in progress, but they will rightly head to Murrayfield on Saturday with a swagger after such an emphatic start to the tournament.
