The Six Nations returned today with the first matches involving Wales v Italy and Ireland v Scotland.

As ever, the Six Nations brings with it that most hallowed of traditions - day-drinking and funny tweets. Obviously, we can't replicate day-drinking, but we can show you some funny tweets.

As you'd expect, much of the content centered around the first launch of the Johnny Sexton-Andy Farrell combo, but the real moment that caught people's attention was Stuart Hogg's knock-on and missed try, all of it caught in full HD for the world to see.

In the end, Ireland came away with a hard-won victory of 19-12 against the Scots, putting the first victory of the Six Nations on the board.

Here's some of the funniest tweets we could find during the match.
