There is one for Cricket, so whilst the league is on a break, thought would put one up after the results in the autumn internationals. A very predictable procession for England. But watched the entirety of Wales v NZ. Wow - what a game Last year Wales had lost 18 games in a row and had only beaten I think Fiji and Japan recently, may have beaten Italy. But they stunned the all blacks. Two quick tries at the start of each half. And then 25 to 30 minutes with NZ camped in their 22, only seven points behind and they kept them out. Heroic defence. When both my nan and dad were around, they were both massive Welsh rugby fans and I did have a little thought to both, with such an incredible result. My mate rang who is a bit older than me and I asked him what year he was born, so it was 1953, so he was a babe in arms when Wales last beat NZ, in 1953. Was amazed the Phil Bennett, Gareth Edwards, Mervyn Davies, John Dawes, JPR williams, JJ Williams, Pontypool Front Row, Gerald Davies they never beat them either. Was an incredible game and a good night to go out in Cardiff this evening, am sure ! Wales have been so bad, lots of tickets were unsold for the match. What a game to miss. [Post edited 14 Nov 22:01]
