How England performed
England opened their 1883 Home Nations Championship campaign at Swansea on 16 December 1882, beating Wales 2–0. A 1–0 win over Ireland followed at Whalley Range, Manchester, on 5 February 1883.
The last match took England to Raeburn Place, Edinburgh, on 3 March, where they beat Scotland by two tries to one. That completed a perfect record of three wins from three, and England finished as champions with the Triple Crown.
