Italy finished bottom of the table that year but achieved a historic feat by earning their maiden point away from home after drawing with Wales.In 2007, with four teams having a mathematical chance of lifting the trophy on the final day, France retained their crown on points difference again.Italy made further history by winning their first away match against Scotland in Edinburgh and also by picking up two victories for the first time after beating Wales in Rome.Scotland replaced Italy in settling for sixth, while Ireland won the Triple Crown for the second straight occasion and third time in four years.Wales ended France’s run in 2008, winning the Grand Slam for the second time in four years after a remarkable opening against England.
For every try England scored, Les Bleus responded with their own before six minutes from time England wing Jack Nowell crossed to make it 55-35 and a nail-biting last few minutes in Twickenham ensued.However, it wasn’t to be for the Red Rose as France kicked the ball out with England missing out – just six points short of the title.England would turn around their fortune just a year after coming so agonisingly close. {{ formatDateTime(fixture.datetime,'time') }} England won the first series, along with a Triple Crown, and up until 1893 when Wales won and 1894 when Ireland won only them and Scotland had been crowned champions.Wales’ triumphs in 1908 and 1909, although won during the Home Nations era, were the first Grand Slams as they defeated France in both seasons.France officially joined in 1910, having played in four tournaments up to that point, with the Championship now referred to as the Five Nations.
