      We should have put 50 on...Welch a team of grinders. Made the most of their territory without ever creating much.

        Very similar to the 03 Bronze game.

          Bronze medal! Woo! Woo!

          That is what the All Blacks travelled to Japan for right?

            Well, it must have been an incredibly tough week for the players. All things considered that's a really good effort, never looked like losing. Proud of that effort.

              Granted - but not what we came for. TBF not what the Welsh came for either. Tough for both teams,

                They hit hard from the start and won the contact. Unlike last week.

                Would like to see more control and better decision making so we can win tight ones.

                    Could have been so much worse
                    But frustratingly so much better

                      Cheers, Steve Hansen, an excellent man, superb sportsmanship, second to none as a defender of the values of the game and a very good coach.

                      Sadly not ruthless in enough in the last two or three years when it mattered most, but a great record any way.

                      Pleased for him that he signed off as AB coach with a win.

                        Happy enough with that.

                        Good win.
                        Record against Wales maintained.
                        Pretty certain to be second in the rankings on Monday.
                        BFA and the rest of the retirees had good send offs.

                            Well said mate. Lots of different emotions for the players. Disappointed players, those that were playing their last test, Hansen’s last test and he’s tearing up.

                                        Hansen said one bad game and you are out. Kinda true but if you reflect on the performances up to that time, we were vulnerable to a team that showed up and played smart.

                                        He has been a wonderful coach for a long time. Our best I think.
