That's all we have for this one. Stay with Tribe for the clash between France and Italy who lock horns tomorrow afternoon in Lille. This is Anthony Morgan signing off.
Scotland head to Rome for a must-win encounter with Italy on March 9. England will meet Ireland in the later match that day at Twickenham where a win will set up an intriguing race for the title the following weekend.
Scotland's win lifts them up to second on the ladder on nine points but they are still six points adrift of the unbeaten Ireland on top. England sit one point back in third spot with both sides now needing to win each of their remaining games to have any chance of dethroning Ireland.
England had fleeting moments on attack with George Furbank and Immanuel Feyi-Waboso scoring tries after some sharp distribution by Harry Slade and Ben Spencer. In the end though 26 errors and 22 turnovers told a story as Scotland's desperation forced them into mistakes. Sam Underhill was one of England's best as he won his side multiple penalties at the breakdown.
Duhan van der Merwe was a standout on the left wing with three contrasting tries in a 25-minute period either side of halftime. Huw Jones played a key role in the first two of those tries with a clean break and a couple of sharp offloads to Van der Merwe. Finn Russell pulled the strings with a brilliant kicking display both in general play and at goal where he landed 6/6.
A hat-trick by Duhan van der Merwe has led Scotland to a 30-21 win over England at Murrayfield. After England raced out to an early 10-point lead, Van der Merwe's two tries before halftime turned the momentum as the hosts went into halftime with a 17-13 lead. A brilliant cross-field kick by Finn Russell set up Van der Merwe for his third try which gave Scotland a decisive 11-point advantage. Russell and George Ford traded penalties over the next 20 minutes before England jagged a try to Immanuel Feyi-Waboso to give themselves a lifeline. Fin Smith's conversion bounced off the upright and try as they might England lacked the execution to get any closer.
