Jonathan Joseph scored a hat-trick of tries as England romped to a 40-9 Six Nations victory in Italy on Sunday.

The hosts were competitive for the first 53 minutes at Rome's Stadio Olimpico, trailing only 11-9 until Joseph's intercept try opened the floodgates.

The Bath centre crossed twice more, to add to his club team-mate George Ford's first-half score, while Owen Farrell added the fifth try.
