Link to game livestream

Link is Sky UK.... I have Sky NZ on TV but the pre-game discussion from UK is more palatable to me... since I am Welsh, not NZ for Rugby :cool

I suspect that Wales will get a thrashing tonight.... :(

Ben Smith is one of my fave AB players... normally full back.. tonight he moves to wing.. to allow space for Israel Dagg to come in as full back. (Julian Savea dropped) Dagg was great when on top form... dropped when he lost form.. but if he is anywhere near his old form now... he and Ben Smith should be great to watch. I am a FAN of running back play (al la Wales in the 70's) and so am looking forward to open running Rugby.

I was glad to see Peyper as the Referee. I remember he was referee for the opening game of the World Cup last year.

He seems to let them play :)

Well that was an exciting half, and it flew by quickly.

Wales did well to hang in and level the score. NZ were NOT as organized as I feared.

Wales are in with a chance IF they can hang in for the entire second half.

Wales giving it all they have got... but they simply dont have enough to beat the Allblacks... and really have not for many years.

Well, at least Wales didn't give up after it looking bleak. They showed some strong effort ... with time running out.

I think the turnovers hurt them badly. Even in the first half, there were some bad ones close to the goal line, but the Wales defense seemed to play harder, NZ couldn't take advantage.

I was hoping for a tie-breaker match next week. ;)
