Congratulations to Wales, when you consider where they were a couple of months ago it is incredible what they have managed.

That's dangerously close to sore-loser talk. Don't demean yourself!

England just missed about 6 or 7 tackles in 1 period of play, they're playing awful, the referee excuse has gone.
I'm not gonna sing but I'll tell you what - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5HRzaOFhec
I won't say what I am thinking...might get a ban. The trip home form Cardiff is going to be soooo long for England.
Hands up here England have been totally routed, not seen them outplayed this bad in a long time.
Well done Wales superb performance. If they'd been awake first 40 minutes against Ireland they would have been celebrating the grand slam themselves!

I just hate the whole game, it seems so boring and looks like a poor excuse to molest other blokes.

Well I am English and shouldn't slag my own national team off.
The England World Cup win was in a similar vein to Chelsea winning the Champions league.
Johny Wilkinson won it with his kicking.
I had a feeling Wales would win, but not with so much momemtum. England have been inept.

Emphasis on the bold
Speechless.
I thought I'd missed out on this type of scoreline against England having been born later than when the 70s team were in their pomp.
Biggar gets a penalty Wales 30-3 up inn the 72nd minute.

Not true , they were the best team in the world from at least a year before their World Cup win.
England can't even make the right decission when about 2 metres out. Silly kick to the corner.
I think some wrong players have been picked in the starting line up.

If we carry on playing like this then Wales could be winning the World Cup at Twickenham in 2015.

"Could" isn't a World Title. England have been World Champions, nobody can dispute that, they have proven they are the best in the world.
Wales have been the better team. Walsh has helped them win by so much though.
Maybe they might be able to beat a Southern Hemisphere side now.

At least us English can go back to not caring about rugby again. We'll be back next time England have a chance at the Grand Slam or another World Cup. Until then enjoy the sport you Welshies, and congrats on the trophy.
Tipuric for Lions 7 
warburton outside bet for 6
What a performance! When we beat them who'd have thought they'd win the comp and wed get at best joint bottom!
