Wales have crumbled to their second consecutive Six Nations wooden spoon for the first time in history. They were thrashed by title chasing England 68-14 in Cardiff on Saturday afternoon, compounding their previous four defeats to finish rock bottom of the Championship.

England produced one of their best performances for years to crush hapless Wales by a record 68-14 scoreline on Saturday, finishing the Six Nations in second place after France took the title by beating Scotland in Paris.

England consigned ailing rival Wales to a 17th straight loss with a record 10-try 68-14 drubbing in the Six Nations that ensured the title will be decided in the final match of the tournament between France and Scotland on “Super Saturday.

Wales caretaker coach Matt Sherratt said a record 68-14 thrashing by England in Cardiff had been "devastating" for his players. It's devastating for the players."

Wales will need to move on quickly from their humiliating 68-14 Six Nations loss to England in Cardiff on Saturday, according to interim coach Matt Sherratt, after a new low for a side who have plumbed the depths over the last 18 months.
