Rather than the kick to touch at the end, I thought the biggest mistake made by Wales was not going for the try with 5 minutes left, kick it to the corner & take destiny into your own hands, it was like they didn't really believe in themselves. There was no guarantee that they were going to get another shot at points with less than 4 minutes left (which there was after Henson finally took the kick), & so it proved. This coming from a NZ fan.

New Zealand Deserved win in the end. People blaming Steven Jones at the end, that attack was going nowhere he had to kick but nobody chased cause they were all tired. Plus he was probably unaware how long was left.

Two crucial moments at the end wales wasted. #1. the 75th minute they should've chanced their hand and opt an scrum or line out and go for the 5 pointer. #2. guy who caught the last in-touch kick should've threw it in quickly as the ref still hadn't blown his whistle till he realized that wales were looking to settle for a form line-out which according to the game clock their wasn't any time for one.

modern stadium build with strips of turf brought in laid on top of concrete. no natural drainage, on top of that it's right next to a river. tbh though if you go back and watch games from that era it was still a bog at times.
