🏏Good to see Ben Kellaway get a 50 for England Lions in Perth
Although the tourists are struggling, batting 75 and 72 overs is rather better than the seniors…..

🏉Fine performance from Wales in attack with excellent finishes from Rogers creating history with his hat trick & LRZ
Overall a positive performance despite conceding 50
But simply didn’t have enough possession & NZ had an extra gear with Wales missing first up tackles and discipline #WALvNZL

🏉10 point deficit for Wales at HT much better than expected with two lovely tries created, but soft defence for NZ second try.
Perhaps the union could work on being able to see the first 5 mins of the game?

🏉Promising first half for Wales at times but still a lot to do after slow start and sloppy end
First up tackling needs to improve and Pumas threatening down left
Ruck speed good in possession and a couple of decent turnovers
