Razor if he would take the job.

He's a lucky coach at least. That is 4 out of the last 8 tests that Wales' opponent has had a player red carded.

Genuine question. Are you allowed to slap the ball down if your arm goes in a backwards direction?

Don't Wales have any Welsh coaches? Given SA are deemed to be leading the pack right now, maybe Wales could go with a South African?

Wales win by default again ,and this with the help of all 4 officials ..we all know who wins if this contest is 15 on 15 ..every red card win should have a ? Mark against it ..

As long as the ball travels backwards as it goes down it should be fair game

Well that was disappointing - just woke up and had to watch on the phone as everyone else here is asleep.
Just rewound to the red card. Under the current framework, not much argument.
The 20 minute Red card is now looking like a much better option, and don't know why it is not on this tour.
Guess I'll watch back and look for every single head clash that was missed. 😬
Rennie's year was a pass mark overall with 50% wins I think and a shit load of injuries. The problem is we are lacking depth that hopefully gets addressed in Super Rugby Pacific.

Odd game. Australia looked much the better side for most of that, but Wales got the win, just. I'm sure Wales fans won't mind a bit though.
I'm going to bet we made key errors at key times and eventually ran out of puff due to the extra man.
Wales were short of experience but still had enough to get there. Pivac lives on.

Getting a red card for that head clash just feel plain wrong, no matter how idiotic the laws are at the moment. Additionally, that happening in the 15th minute vs that happening in the 75th minute has extremely different outcomes, which is weird. Felt bad for Australia, only watched the last 20 minutes (plus saw a vid of the RC) and I dislike the way Liam Williams looks, so I'm sad.

Or maybe how many clumsy bastards get themselves carded on the day.
Called it 😉
Congrats to you and @MiketheSnow - a win is a win.

We’ve had back to back matches against 14, sometimes 13, and we still can’t create an overlap
Pathetic

knocking the ball down like that before the Welsh try should not be rewarded - no matter if it travelled marginally backwards. I think the benefit of the doubt should be against the "down-knocker" in these situations, as I feel it goes against the spirit of the game. So a penalty unless the ball CLEARLY travels backwards, I think everyone plays and refs like this already anyways. Wobs weren't very lucky with some decisions tonight, though

Rennie used the word "horrendous" to describe some of the officiating in the presser I'm told 😮
A frustrated man but it wasn't a good look. I expect that, instead of receiving his predicted apology, he'll be delivered, at minimum, a fine.
Lack of discipline ultimately cruelled the team. Could've still won despite the officiating, IMO.
