Wales versus All Blacks.

 Having newly acquired an All Blacks team off trusty ebay, and Wales due to play the All Blacks today at 5.15pm, I thought we might just as well have a table rugby match beforehand to see how it went!!
                            Picture shows Wales about to kick off for the second half. The first half was pretty uneventful with neither side gaining any real advantage, and ended up with no score. The second half however saw an early try for Wales with a successful conversion attempt making the score 7-0 to Wales. A scrum from a knock on in the All Blacks half resulted in a successful drop goal attempt by Wales, making the score a healthy 10-0. The restart by the All Blacks resulted in a long kick forward and a subsequent try in the right hand corner. The conversion attempt fell short leaving the score 10-5 to Wales. With about 3 minutes to go, a good run by the All Blacks resulted in another try left of the posts, and the conversion was successful making the score 12- 10 to the All Blacks! Wales restarted, and a bad possession flick by the All Blacks gave Wales a line out down by the All Blacks goal line, from which Wales scored a try right in the right hand corner. The conversion attempt went wide and that was the end of the game.
                                 Wales 15    All Blacks 12.
      So there you have it, the All Blacks can be beaten, come on Wales!!!

    Hi Chris, It Looks like yer subbuteo All Blacks have a red bottom part. Is that how they made it? Or else? Rather disappointing though, I would have expected them too be all black!
    Unfortunately for Wales the real game was something different although gripping upto the 70th minute.

    Hi Alberto.
    The all blacks would normally have a black base, but I got them cheap off e bay and as I only wanted them for playing rather than collecting I was not that fussed. Shame about the real match, but I think Wales gave them a good game, trouble is you cannot afford to make mistakes against a team like the Kiwis!!
