It would be fair to say the All Blacks have dominated matches against Wales, winning 26 of the 29 matches that have been contested between the two sides since the first dramatic meeting at Cardiff Arms park in 1905 – where Wales clinched a 3-0 win.
The loss made headlines worldwide as All Blacks wing Bob Deans was adamant he had scored a try which would have brought the score-line level.
Two more Welsh victories in the next 50 years were balanced by a defeat by the 1924 All Black “Invincibles”. Since 1963 New Zealand have won all 25 encounters.
But it’s all about today – can Sam Warburton lead his side to a rare victory against the best team in the world.
