Sinopse

Local media has made much of the fact only one All Black has made a United Kingdom media outlet's World XV – all except ZB’s own D’Arcy Waldegrave/Lock Brodie Retallick, the standout player for Steve Hansen's men at Twickenham, is the only All Black selected in the XV but even he failed to back-up in Dublin.Six Irishmen have made the Wales Online's form XV, including left wing Jacob Stockdale, who scored the only try of the 16-9 victory over the All Blacks in Dublin, the first time Ireland have beaten New Zealand on home soil.Retallick is one of only three Southern Hemisphere players in the XV; the others are Australia No8 David Pocock and Boks loosehead prop Steven Kitschoff.New Zealand media have labelled the decision a ‘snub’, but as D’Arcy told Andrew Dickens, these types of lists aren’t worth the paper they’re written on.Wales Online's November series World XV 15.
