GroundHogg Day
Leads the tournament in metres gained and should have plenty of opportunities against a side who shipped six tries a fortnight ago.
In the last round of fixtures Stuart Hogg was a 16/1 winner for us and if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
6 Nations Attacking Statistics
figures adjusted to per 80 min
The Scotland full-back leads the tournament in total metres carried (232) and in terms of metres per carry he is second to Jonathan Joseph but the England centre carries less frequently and is open to more variance.
The Glasgow Warriors player is an elusive runner as his 4.0 defenders beaten per 80min demonstrates and he could cause havoc against Italy attacking from deep.
The Italians shipped six tries against England a fortnight ago and even if Hogg is unable to open the tryscoring at 10/1 (Paddy Power) there is a good chance he scores anytime and we get our money back.
