@ Trinats, seriously you're just a deadbeat loser.

You're not funny, you're rehashing the same lame sparks to stoke fires that were burnt out a long time ago. get a life.

Craig Joubert to have this knocked over in the first 20 mins, keep the Welsh crowd quiet will be his tactic. A win for NZbert 20 +

I think the AB's are too good to lose this one. However I predict that the Welsh will bleed for their jerseys this weekend. You just won't know it looking at the colour.

I think its really sad what's happened to Wales (formwise) recently, not that i wasn't ecstatic for Samoa and Argentina. In my opinion, Nz v Wales should have been the appropriate Rwc 2011 final, going by form into the final and the draw of the final table. Im not trying to bring up a debate on a certain yellow card, but im just saying on form then, that would have been the final I would most have liked to see. So to have an opportunity to see that game now, with an out-of-sorts Wales is just saddening.

Wales have as much chance of winning as Zane Kirchner has of being selected Bok fans Springbok of the year.

I'll be hugely surprised if it isnt a whitewash. Or more appropriately a blackwash!!!

I love the roof on the millenium stadium, the recent rain and storms have no chance of stopping this game so we can all just settle down with a beer and laugh at the Welsh team!

Dont know what games you've been watching but Liam Messam is highly overrated! Watch him for 10-15mins during a game and you will see what I mean. When you have workhorses like Read and McCaw doing the donkey work you can hang out and glorify yourself with big plays, however NZ hasnt been as strong this year upfront, so he's better being in there helping out. The funny thing is the NZers have played teams below strength, SA, OZ etc. have been under-strength all year, same goes for some of the northern teams and Wales. NZ still a formidable team with McCaw and Carter, but issues when they dont play.

Come on PR Craig Joubert is worth at least 20 to NZ, NZ ability another 80+, less NZ's empathy toward Wales slump -50. End score Wales 18, NZ 55.

@dangerous

really, how did you work that out? I had France, England and Wales potentially all in the same pool.

Personally, I hope Wales do well and maintain 8th spot (at least) so we can have a tough pool otherwise I think we're up against a similar pool as 2007 and that didn't help us prepare (no disrespect intended to other teams in 9th or 10th).
