I love Welsh Rugby & I loathe Australian Rugby - but, MAN Australia was robbed. The ref made too many mistakes (coincidentally all in favour of Wales?) . The Wallabies should have won this game!
The Referee should never ref a top international again. And I'm sick of commentators saying,...."as the new rules are written, that's a red card." Valetini was sent off for 65 minutes. He stuffed up. He wasn't out to cause damage. I can't watch the game being stopped and players actions being scrutinised every five minutes. Barnes reffed France v NZ the old way. The commentators are virtue signalling wokestars. Stand against Internatiional control by authoritarians Give players a role in setting the rules.
Beale knocked it on, and when players tackle like that and knock the ball on it's almost always called intentional. Tompkins knocks it backwards which is completely legal. Try learning the laws before commenting
@@ScottyWakefield i agree with the try personally but how do you justify the countless missed players rucking off their feet? The forward passes, the knees on the ground in the scrum, the obstructions and the blatant red (as per the officiating of the rest of this game) which only cost Wales a yellow.
Slapping the ball down is perfectly legal if it doesn't go forward, which it doesn't. Good call from the ref, terrible from Australia, they should be playing to the whistle, that's schoolboy stuff.
I think the point is that majority of angles showed the ball going forward. One angle created doubt and the TMO decided this was sufficient to go with on field decision
I think it’s pretty fair to say momentum takes him over here. You can argue tooth and nail over the rules if you’d like (it seems northern hemisphere folk love to do this against any country but their own) but fact is there’s momentum propelling him over the line. The law states a tackled player must ‘immediately make the ball available’. Surely you’d agree this is not practical when there is momentum in the tackle? In other words, referees often recognise it’s more logical for a player to hold the ball and wait until momentum has stopped before playing it - thus blurring the lines of what constitutes a “tackle”. I think most would agree Wales got the rub of the green in this game but UA-cam never fails to prove there’s somebody out there with a different opinion
Listen to the commentators lol. Sound like they're sad af for anything benefiting Wales but when Australia do something they're so excited. So biased lol
Not as biased as that ref. You also have the right to get excited when your team is getting stitched up so bad but still fighting your way back into a game.

@Mark Morris It's a sort of "love-hate" & "love-to-hate" relationship...
@Mark Morris Not at all (though it may seem that way to you).
This refereeing is absolutely outrageous. This has left me supremely irritated for our Aussie cousins. Daylight robbery
Ref was alshet..Auzzie got Robbed 😜..clear knock on...Only way Wales could of won .
Surprised this video wasn’t just ref highlights tbh

Precisely the reason I barely watch rugby anymore
This referee need extra training, lack of knowledge
Wales and unfathomable refereeing decisions, name a more iconic combination.
How the Kurtley and Tompkins actions aren’t the same is a joke.
They aren’t the same: it’s very easy to argue that kurtley’s was less egregious since he was kind of going for the tackle as well.
Ref making up rules for Wales to win..🤫

@@thejgod4982 go Wales. No way the ref Gabe them the win lol

ref deserves a sack
The try at 1:27 is an absolute joke. That's clearly slapping the ball down if not forward.

I then stand corrected. Thanx

@@jamesmcgowan8709 They don't though. Most angles don't show anything of any use and there's one angle that shows the ball clearly going backwards
@@thejgod4982whatever you say buddy. I was in the stadium and the Welsh fans were all as shocked as we were when that was given
red and a yellow, bit stiff imo
Biased commentator
Not as biased as ref
I think everyone's commentators are biased towards their players😂 This is Stan Sport AU
Haha biased Australian commentators fell silent at the final whistle! 🏴 🔥
Looool like you think that was a solid win 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Second last try from Aus shouldn't stand he was tackled then propelled himself forward with his knees.

Your commentators are way more biased. Cringe to listen
Sorry they get excited when a penalty finally goes our way after countless stupid calls😂
