Well that's precisely what Aus didn't want to happen. Game over now.

Pure class

At first i thought Beale had just slipped but replays show the quality of that step!

 

[Dirty Ape]

Well Aus got the dodgy call that time.

 

[OverGore]

mac caw penalty here? no come on, lol

 

[Dirty Ape]

Never seen a scrum running before. Interesting.

I can't help but think that this has all become a bit of a joke after only 40 minutes. Regardless of whether they are playing well or not there are rules and they are there to be enforced.

I thought some of the referreeing or lack there of has been pretty ordinary. But it's not even that - mcaw can talk to the ref but Moore is told to go away. Poor referreeing has the ability to make what could have been a decent struggle into a joke.

I'm not even sure it's going to get any better. Even if the refereeing improves I think Australia have been rattled enough to make the result predictable. I saw pool matches that were more interesting.

I honestly never really complain about the ref. But Owens cost Australia 10 points before half-time.

A 100% legitimate turnover from McCaw.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

HAS to be a card for that!
Barnes who spotted it so obviously this will go down very well

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

[Cruz_del_Sur]

[OverGore]

A 100% legitimate turnover from McCaw.

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Right call by Owens

 

[ncurd]

Has to be a yellow.... just completely wrong...

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Good refereeing, i thought he'd chicken out of the card.

Good try Aussie.

 

[ncurd]

Owens tried to not give it but it would of been a terrible decision not to.

 

[GoTheNaki]
