after the match morgan expressed disagreement with the referee's controversial decision to disallow a try claimed by new zealand player bob deans. a contemporary reporter stated "morgan sprinted across from the left wing, and helped winfield to save what otherwise would have been a try by tackling deans before be grounded the ball, and, though a splendid effort was made by the centre threequarter to straggle over, timely reinforcements came to morgan, and the ball was grounded between two and three feet from the line, though deans considers he grounded the ball in goal. but the incident has been the subject of different accounts, with cliff pritchard, rhys gabe and welsh captain gwyn nicholls claiming to have been among the tacklers and in a good position to see that the ball was grounded short of the line.
