Hi Perdjie!
I think the All Blacks will want to prove they should have been in the Final… and not in this 3rd Place Play-Off.
So, I expect the All Blacks to win comfortably.

Hi GBS, yip, me too unfortunately, have taken them by a huge 23-odd points!!!

I also took them by quite a bit, All Blacks by 25!
Players out on the field…
Wales won the toss, and I think they decided to kick off.
First the moment silence, that we have become accustomed to in the last few weeks…
Anthems up next…
New Zealand Anthem up 1st…
In many respects the changes the All Blacks have made to their side, makes them even more dangerous..
Welsh Anthem…
Now for the All Blacks haka…
The haka is Kamate… Kieran Read leading the haka for the last time…
Game ON!
Kick-Off by Wales!
The All Blacks immediately intent on carrying the ball…
Wales with a nice break, but then a penalty to the All Blacks, over the ball was Sam Cane.
All Blacks attacking well… they are on the Welsh 22…
Penalty All Blacks, in front on the 22.
Missed, off the post…
Try Joe Moody, All Blacks!
All Blacks 7 / 0 Wales
Knocked by Patchell, on attack… All Blacks counter… they knock but advantage was over.
I do not think the Welsh sufofcating defence can work against the All Blacks…
Like England did to the All Blacks, attack and dominate is the only ploy that can work.
Beauden Barrett has to scramble back but the All Blacks have the ball, 5m from their own line… exit kick.
Welsh attacking lineout.
Wales, like the Springboks, persisting with their kicking up-and-under attacks… but also like the Springboks they rarely get the ball back from the up-and-unders.
Good snipe by Aaron Smith, All Blacks.
Welsh exit kick, out just outside their 22.
Try Beauden Barrett, All Blacks, behind the sticks!
All Blacks 14 / 0 Wales
Wales penalty, in front on the 10m line…
They will kick to touch… out 5m out… for the attacking lineout.
Wales over, clearly held up.
Back for a 5m Wales penalty… offside.
Another 5m lineout…
Again Wales try to maul, but the maul goes nowhere.
