Classic 6 Nations Video: England 46 - 12 Wales, 2000

Oh, those long gone days when England would thrash everyone and then bottle the Grand Slam EVERY SINGLE YEAR for what seemed like about 12 years.  Here they are dismantling Wales at Twickenham a decade ago.  

Check out Phil Greening, the forward who could not play as a forward - which was a bit of an issue come scrum and line-out time.  And of course LBND's try, which people always cite as an example of his power, but I prefer to think of as an example of the Welsh team forgetting the sage advice of my old coach from Lancashire; "They can't run 'bout their bloody legs, lads!"

In the interest of balance, that game at Wembley is after the jump...
