Warriors’ wing Josh Adams kept Wales on course for a Guinness Six Nations Grand Slam with his third try in as many matches to help set up an 18-11 victory over Scotland at Murrayfield.
Adams went over for Wales’ first try after 12 minutes which was his fourth try in as many matches with him also crossing for Warriors against Harlequins at The Stoop.
Wales extended their record winning sequence to 13 and a victory over Ireland in their final match next Saturday would clinch their first Six Nations title since 2013.
England bounced back from their defeat by Wales with a 57-14 win over Italy at Twickenham with Warriors’ centre Ben Te’o making his first appearance of the competition.
Te’o forged a powerful midfield combination with Manu Tuilagi and helped England to an emphatic bonus point win.
Warriors’ hooker Joe Taufete’e took his record for most tries by a front row forward in international rugby with a brace in USA’s thrilling 30-25 victory over Canada in their final match of the Americas Rugby Championship on Friday.

He added a second in the second half to take his tally to 20 tries in just 22 international appearances for the Eagles.
But USA needed a last-gasp try from scrum-half Ruben de Haas to snatch victory in a thrilling finale.
