Writing in the Daily Telegraph, Brian Moore praises the ball skills and general tactical appreciation of southern hemisphere players opposed to their northern rivals.
"Apart from one aberrant 15-minute period when Australia’s backs were strangely imprecise, the standard of delivery by both the Aussie and Kiwi backs was sharp. Contrast this with the often laboured passing of the Welsh and especially the English backs. Not only was it sometimes ponderous, at times the inability to deliver the ball in front of the man halted forward momentum as players had to pause to gather ball which had been passed behind them."
