WELLINGTON (Reuters) - Wales will be stronger for their New Zealand tour whatever the result of the final test but the first order for an exhausted squad at the end of a gruelling 12 months will be a beer and a rest, assistant coach Neil Jenkins said on Friday.

The Welsh have been on the go since last June when they began their final preparations for the Rugby World Cup. Since then, in addition to club duties, they have played 16 tests, winning eight and losing seven with one draw.
