Tunnel melee to be viewed

ENGLAND must explain the tunnel fracas involving centre Owen Farrell at Murrayfield, following a request for clarification by Six Nations Rugby.

The Rugby Football Union and its Scottish counterparts have been asked to provide their accounts of the scuffle that took place shortly before Eddie Jones’ men were defeated 25-13 in a pulsating Calcutta Cup match.

TV footage appears to show a clash between Farrell and Scotland No.8 Ryan Wilson immediately after their teams respective warm-ups.
