It is hard to argue against the view England ended the Six Nations with their most complete performance in recent memory, and certainly in the tenure of Steve Borthwick. Indeed, some even have gone as far as to say the demolition of Wales was one of England’s best performances ever in the championship.

England has consigned ailing rival Wales to a 17th straight loss with a record 10-try 68-14 drubbing in the Six Nations in Cardiff.

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.
