Team of the Week: Sweet chariot
England put down an early Six Nations marker and they are rewarded in rugby365's famous selection!
There are seven England players in our first Team of the Week for 2015 - a clear indication of their dominance of the weekend's action.
Ireland, despite struggling against Italy in Rome, are next best - the defending Six Nations champions getting three players in our starting XV.
Scotland, Wales (both two) and France (one) make up the numbers.
Ireland get further reward in our back-up squad, with seven Irishmen bubbling under.
Scotland, for their brave efforts in Paris, have four players in our back-up squad - with Wales, France (both two) and Italy (one) making up the numbers.
Team of the Week: Six Nations, Round One:
Both on attack and defence he was masterful - not flawless, but very good.
Bubbling under: Leigh Halfpenny (Wales)
Maybe not as many spectacular runs as some other wings, but his all-round game was superior - with particular emphasis on his flawless defence.
Bubbling under: Yoann Huget (France)
Came of age in the Cardiff cracker.
Bubbling under: Mark Bennett (Scotland)
He has his critic, supposedly for being one-dimensional. However, ask the England players and they will tell you he remains a major threat.
Bubbling under: Alex Dunbar (Scotland)
Has his shortcoming, but remains a very exciting prospect.
Bubbling under: Simon Zebo (Ireland)
Emphasised the enormous dept the Irish have in the No.10 channel.
Bubbling under: Dan Biggar (Wales)
He is key to Ireland's cause.
Bubbling under: Rory Kockott (France)
An enormous workrate, especially on defence, in a losing cause.
Bubbling under: Sergio Parisse (Italy)
Strong competition from Ireland's Tommy O'Donnell, but Robshaw made an amazing 26 tackles - double that of the Irishman.
Bubbling under: Tommy O'Donnell (Ireland)
Another player that is crucial to his team's cause.
Bubbling under: Peter O'Mahony (Ireland)
Already outshining elder brother Richie.
Bubbling under: Paul O'Connell (Ireland)
Missed a few tackles, but his workrate and line-out performance was phenomenal.
Bubbling under: Richie Gray (Scotland)
A monster in the scrums.
Bubbling under: Mike Ross (Ireland)
His surname says it all.
Bubbling under: Ross Ford (Scotland)
Growing in stature.
Bubbling under: Jack McGrath (Ireland)
