Upcoming Matches
Overview
For all of France, Wales and Ireland’s successes, England have won the most titles with seven.
The most recent came in 2020 when they recovered from an opening defeat in Paris to win their next four matches and take the crown with a 34-5 victory in Italy.
England dominated the early years of the competition, winning three of the first four renewals in 2000, 2001 and 2003, the latter being accompanied by a Grand Slam. Their gutsy showings would provide the blueprint for when Clive Woodward’s masterplan came together later in the year as his side beat Australia in the World Cup final.
However, while they also took the title in 2011, 2016 and 2017, only the 2016 success was a clean sweep as Eddie Jones’ side barged past all before them.
Jones’ three titles match Woodward’s tally, but after a poor sequence of results the Aussie was sacked and replaced by former captain Steve Borthwick in December 2022.
