Six Nations: England 48 Wales 7England really didn’t play that well. This crisis is most keenly felt in a country so steeped in rugby’s ways, but it spreads beyond the principality. This is a crisis for the Six Nations, because at this point it is hard to see how Wales pull themselves out of the rut. In reality, the Six Nations is likelier to expand before it introduces relegation, but credibility becomes an issue in the meantime. As it is, this is 12 matches in a row that Wales have lost in the Six Nations.
