Young Scots explain the rules of Rugby to England

Pupils at Hutchesons' Grammar School in Glasgow explain the offside rule to England ahead of their Six Nations match with Scotland.

England defeated Italy 36-15 but they were given a scare by the Italians who employed some unique tactics that saw them lead 5-10 at half-time.

Foster who plays scrum-half for the school rugby team, said: “England should have coped better, they didn’t really know the rules.â€

Jack, who plays hooker, said: “Italy didn’t form a ruck so they could be caught offside, but they weren’t so they were limiting England’s chances.â€

England take on Scotland at Twickenham with England top of the Six Nations table and Scotland in third place.
