2017 November Internationals

You can watch the Aus vs. Baabaas game on Channel 10's site, if you have an Aussie IP address.
I hear that Mullvad is a decent VPN service.

The Aussie TV director has just orchestrated a yellow card with constant replays of a high tackle in a BaaBaas match - with the yellow card of a former Wallaby in Quade Cooper.
And the Wallabies get a try to take the lead from the penalty.
Baa Baas currently playing league.

Australia may be without two of their rising stars on the Spring Tour, though, with Jack Dempsey (leg) and Lukhan Tui both in doubt after injuries. Tui was off in the 35th minute with a hamstring concern, while Dempsey had his leg twisted in a tackle in the 74th minute, unable to stand up on the sideline, forced to wait until the game finished to go into the rooms.

Pulu had a good game.
Aside from his passing. So many go to the 1st receiver high.

Mind you Justin Marshall made a long career from doing just that.

Referee Pickerall has had a shocker - way too pedantic for this kind of game.
Pulu had a good game.
Thought both those late yellows were poor calls.
First one for deliberate knock forward Naiyaravoro clearly used two hands and tried to catch it.
Second one Quade was awkward due to the Wob who got in his road, rode up, collected Izzy high (penalty), but pulled out of the impact and didn't impart much force. Penalty only in my opinion. I can see how Pickerill reached his conclusion but I don't agree. Not my favourite ref.
Of what I saw Quade went well. Matured a bit perhaps?

I might be wrong, but I think on the Nayarovoro yellow the referee gave it due to an offside and I heard the him say "I warned you on the first half, he is going off for repeated infridgements", which would be crazy if he actually warned them 40 minutes ago. Seemed like he blew the whistle and panicked a bit. Might also be wrong and it was due a deliberate knock down.
Agree on the Kwayde yellow. Also agree that he went well on the offence and didn't really catch any glaring misses on defence.
