When the two proud sides descend on Carisbrook, the visitors, who have a illustrious history as one of the more decorated rugby nations, will try to arrest a record against a team that has earned the title as Wales’ ultimate bete noire.
Their record against the All Blacks at the dawn of the 20th century is unparalleled. Recognised as the first conquerors of New Zealand in test rugby, they had achieved the feat twice before any other Northern Hemisphere nation (England was second in 1936) and did it again before a second European power notched a rare All Blacks scalp (France in 1954).
However since then Wales have lost 21, as horrendous a losing streak as suffered by any nation against any opponent.
Despite reflecting on that history, many feel that the All Blacks are not the unconquerable point of reference as they have been in the past.
Last year they conceded the Tri Nations, the less prestigious (in terms of year’s running) Six Nations equivalent in the south; and in the process lost three straight games to the Springboks.
Still, while the All Blacks are not currently engaging in their typical rampage that takes place between World Cups in the professional era, they are still in terms of results beyond any other team outside the reigning World Champions.
Wales will attempt to break New Zealand coach Graham Henry’s incredible record of having only lost twice to Northern opposition since 2004. Only France has beaten them (twice) in that time for a ledger that reads All Blacks 39.
