The final Test of the year for both sides (Wales play again next week but can only field Dragons, Cardiff, Ospreys and Scarlets players because the game falls outside World Rugby’s designated Test window) is one neither team will be particularly keen on. Could the unusually apathetic mood result in a pleasant surprise?
Instead, they face a New Zealand side coming off their biggest loss to England for 13 years – a defeat that has also killed their bid for a Grand Slam tournament and ensured they return home to a brutal trial by the media. It’s safe to say the All Blacks have plenty of steam to let off in Cardiff.
Scott Robertson has shown his anger by making 12 changes to his latest selection, with only captain Scott Barrett, flanker Simon Parker and Will Jordan switching from full-back to wing and keeping their places. World Rugby’s Breakthrough Player of the Year contender Fabian Holland returns to the fold at lock and Damian McKenzie comes in at the tick.
Bristol winger Louis Rees-Zammit will be keen to impose his final international appearance of the year, especially with captain Jac Morgan injured and Josh Adams suspended. But after needing an 82nd-minute penalty to beat Japan by a point at home against the run of play, it shows where Wales are right now. They want nothing better than to keep things respectable.
