Wooden Spoon section[edit]

What kind of messing is going on here? For starters all Home Nations and Five Nations games only have the wooden spoon listed as all games lost when the article referenced makes such no claim. Infact it even clarifies the difference between a wooden spoon and a whitewash. Second of all, Wales have miraculously dropped to 10 wooden spoons when they were 17 only a few weeks ago while every other team has remained the same. How does that work exactly? Lastly how exactly was the wooden spoon not contested before 1894 when the book "Football: The Rugby Union Game" by Frank Marshall talks about Wales wooden spoon in 1892 (the year it was published)?
