All Blacks Work for Welsh Win

 Wales will have to carry on waiting to be beat New Zealand, at least in Rugby Union. The Welsh side were not far off the All Blacks but they lacked the clinical nature which New Zealand possess in the boot of phenomenal fly half Daniel Carter. He kicked 14 of their points as they beat Wales 19-12 at the Millenium Stadium, Cardiff. Warren Gatland was furious at the perceived bias against his team the underdogs. He launched into a scathing attack on referees unwillingness to take charge of upsets and subsequently giving the 50/50 decisions to the favourite, in this case the Kiwis. The starting point of the attack was referee Joubert's decision not to sin bin Daniel Carter after his high tackle with ten minutes to go. BBC article at link below.
