Expectation was high following a close 3 - 4 loss to the first New Zealand team in 1905. But Swansea were in their Golden Era then. In this match they were beaten 3 - 39, Dai Parker kicking Swansea's only points. The All Blacks went on to complete the tour unbeaten and were thus the "Invincibles" team, one of the best ever to tour.
