In 1995, the All Blacks beat Japan 145-17 in South Africa. However, they didn't hold the record of the longest rugby test match. It was quite a bizarre match, with many unusual penalties and a bizarre substitution. The world record for the longest game of its kind was 30.5 hours. It also raised almost PS50,000 to charity.
A 'School of Hard Knocks' match was held to raise awareness of this charity. There were many wonderful and odd things that happened. As bizarre were the substitutions, and the failed attempt at the end.
England's team needed to depart quickly for Cape Town. The team was unable to modify their flight plans. Barnes later admitted that the decision to not go to the sticks was also unwise. He said the decision was tactical, though he did not like the way it was made.
France started the match aggressively, with more bite in their scrums. After five minutes, they scored a goal. Camille Lopez converted. It wasn't a good effort. It was sufficient to set the tone.
Wales' scrums also got more bite. Wales won despite playing the first quarters with a goalline standing. Dan Biggar was unable complete a pass when Virimi Vakatawa's flapping elbow prevented him. The Welsh were also stopped by Alex Callender getting a yellow for flapping his arm.
Wales substituted their starting pro for their second line in an unusual substitution. This was an unusual substitution that was more about saving money than winning the game. Halfpenny, Samson Lee were both replaced as the clock was ticking down.
Peter Barnes was the referee and had to deal with some bizarre penalties when he took up his position. There were actually more penalties than attempts. Some of these were controversial.
Dan Carter, a fly-half for New Zealand from the age of 21 was one of the most successful fly-halves of all time. He has a long international career, having played 100 tests for the All Blacks, including a treble against Wales.
Carter's performance, although it was a record-breaking one, had a significant impact on the match. In the first minute, France threatened Wales. They were fortunate that the big red wall didn't break through. Instead, they were unable to create enough chances to score a try.
England had, however, a better opening. Maro Itoje was the player who did the most rucks. He had 66 rucks, more than any other match participant. His ruck number was not as impressive as Julian Savea’s 86, but it was still adequate.
It is also noteworthy that Grant Fox was the player with the most points during a tournament. He scored 45 point during the 1995 Rugby World Cup. Marc Ellis had six tries. Damien Chouly's attempt against Canada was also the longest in tournament history.
It was a strange and interesting match regardless of which team won. The All Blacks are a highly successful international team with a positive win/loss ratio against all opposition.
