It is by no way Wales' fault that another team has ill discipline, but there certainly is a theme for 2021. 6Nations - vs Wales Ireland received an early Red Card (very narrow wales win) Scotland as above France as above (with try chalked off) Autumn Internationals Fiji Dominating Wales - Early Red Card, Yellow (13 men) Fiji loose. Australia dominating Wales, early red card, then yellow (down to 13 men) and dubious intercept try Now Wales with good discipline or at least not getting called out for ill-discipline then fair play. But my goodness, they have had a lucky year of only playing a couple of games against 15 men.
Refereeing aside. Fair play to Australia. Down to 14 for 65 minutes, down to 13 for 10. Still stayed in the game and pushed it past 80 mins. Didn’t give in despite the Tompkins try. 2 years away from the World Cup, looks like they have the fight in them 👀
Great comment Oliver, as an Aussie I can take the loss, even with a bad ref. I just wanted to see KB show his magic, as he is the piece of the puzzle we are missing
I am hopeful that b4 a match the team meets with the match officials to clarify interpretation of Laws esp tackles and rucks and mauls and other aspects of the constraints, limitations and restrictions.
it was lucky thad they didnt get 3 red cards, that collar grab was intentional foul play to stop a 2 on 1 against the fullback, and the deliberate knock on should have at least been a penalty try. dont blame the ref for the aussies playing dirty.

Hell the collar grab could have been a penalty try because it was 2 on 1 with no other defenders in site.
Posting this as a Wales fan so I'm obviously going to be slightly biased. This was an uncomfortable game to watch from a Wales point of view, even more so than the Fiji game. Wales do not currently look like they have the finger on the pulse. I understand there are a lot of maybe first choice players injured, and one benefit of this autumn campaign is we have had a chance to get a lot of less experienced players some much needed international level experience against some of the best teams in the world, but Wales just looked a little aimless. Fair play to Austrailia, I constantly thought Wales would lose the game throughout, they had the attacking flair that Wales lacked, I think if you went on skill level Austrailia 100% deserved to win. Unfortunately discipline and a few other mistakes cost them the game. I know a lot of people may say the ref was awful but at the end of the day top level international teams need to learn how to play and adapt to the ref, its an integral part on matches these days. That coupled with not playing to the whistle etc cost Austrailia. I'm looking forward to a good rugby match between both of these teams in the Rugby World Cup.
There is a massive difference to adapting to the Ref and a Ref being absolutely and totally biased towards 1 team. I am not excusing any or all ill discipline by Australia but you have to admit the frustration must have been horrendous considering Wale's got to do whatever they wanted without being penalised. Wales should have had at least 3 yellows and 2 red's if you work off the Ref's mentality for the yellow and red for Australia. I get things can be missed but he didn't miss most of these card offenses, he just choose not to punish Wales in the same way he punished Australia
So true wales r always so lucky their team is so average gonna come 5th in this six nations I'm from England so put in them bellow scotland was hard but scotland been good last couple years.
@@thehappypeople7495 You can grab players by their jersey, shorts even their socks if you can. As long as it does not result in your opponent's neck and face being exposed to harm.

@@jamesmckay-mount8689 well have a look at the ‘knock back’. The ball hit the ground and went forward… not by much but forward. But the thing is there, just look at how the ball hit the ground, it can’t go backwards or vertical when it hits at that angle.

HELP! Please excuse my ignorance. I've only started watching rugby union, late in life and have never played it. Would appreciate if someone could explain why the player at 5:11, doesn't not get a yellow card, for the deliberate knock-on? One was awarded earlier in the match. If anything, this one looked more deliberate.
So, after the deliberate knock on at @5:11 , Australia re-gather the ball. You can see the referee put his arm out to signal they now have penalty advantage for that deliberate knock on. When Australia then lose the ball, the referee initially blows for a penalty to Australia, and would possibly have given a yellow card. However, it seems the TMO or someone then draws the referee's attention to the Australian guy jumping really early for the high ball, and effectively taking out the Welsh player off the ball a few seconds before the deliberate knock on, and we all get to see a replay of that. We imagine that play stops at the first offence, so the referee doesn't punish anything that happens afterwards (unless there's something really serious like a red-card offence). Even if they hadn't had this earlier incident, the deliberate knock on might not have been a yellow card, because whereas the other one clearly prevented a pretty nailed on try, in this case there are a few Welsh defenders out wide, and there's a decent chance they will stop the move anyway.
I used to play against a kid who was twice the height of rest of us and he’d swing us round by our shirt a full 360 and just hammer throw us 🤣 pretty sure that’s not allowed. But I thought scrag tackles like that were.
For any of those complaining about officials decisions (mainly seems to be english or "southern hemisphere" supporters, go figure) It's all simple really, alot of the "newer" rules are there to protect player health, so they dont receive life changing injuries from head contact and dangerous tackles, and the one try was clearly shown to not be a knock on. At first I thought it was but from the refs point and TMO cameras its seen to not be, thus they didnt stop play, it isn't ANY of the officials fault that the Australian defence just decided to stop playing. If there was any actual rule breaking by the ref or any of the
A lot of the newer "rules" were brought in to help NH teams, TF you talking about 😂 The Northern Hemisphere got sick of NZ, AUS and SA dominating for all these years (Hence majority of the WC Winners are from the south).. And you still have the nerve to whinge too the ref every game 🤦🏽♂️ Notice how NZ, SA and AUS don't cry to the ref about calls, only NH teams.. I respect Wales tho
@@fazertace6837 well my friend just told me that wales played some of the WAL - AUS for at east 10 mins while the aussies where down to 13 people and yet at the end they won by one point. dayum i wish i understood something in rugby :c
@@jamesmckay-mount8689 if you watch the highlights rees's try was a clear knock on and then there was that weird moment where the ref called time on while englands whole squad is under the posts cause he asked farrell to talk to them.
As a neutral, I was absolutely appalled by the severe inconsistency in the Ref decisions. I have no issue with Beal's yellow card but how Wale's didn't get yellow for the exact same offense, more blatant than Beale or a Red for shoulder to Head is beyond me. The Ref and his team made decision to penalise for deliberate knock on and hitting the head of the opponent but only if it were Australia doing the offense. Why would any team elect to play Wales in a friendly game if the game isn't referred fairly. Team's in the 6nations don't have a choice to play Wales unless they pull out which won't happen but seriously, it's getting beyond ridiculous at how differently Ref's treat Wale's, compared to there opponents
The ball went backwards out of Tompkins hands. Impossible to be carded for intentional knock on, if the ball doesn’t go forward. It’s not inconsistency when your talking about 2 different outcomes. I get you’re still salty about o’mahony’s (correctly handed out) red in the six nations, but I think it’s time to get over it by now don’t ya think?
@@AA-vb2pq I wasn't talking about that incident and I'm not salty about O Mahony's card as he deserved it. Majority of carded offenses, I have no issue with but to say there was no inconsistency in the reffing of the Wales V Australia game is just ridiculous. It was inconsistent for both sides. How a Wales player doesn't get a Red for a clear swinging hand to the head on a player that wasn't interrupting play is mind boggling. By sending off/Red carding the Australian for his head on head challenge was right so the Ref had set the Marker by not allowing any hits to the head which is absolutely right and then allowing Wales to not be penalised the same for a more deliberate hit to the head is clearly inconsistent. How can you not see that. The decision had been made to penalise any head contact as player welfare is paramount as it should be. I will never complain about player's getting card's but I will complain about inconsistent reffing
@@ocodeskamcdbsm I personally think Gareth Thomas should’ve seen red, but to act like you don’t understand why Adamson viewed a high speed head-on-head collision 6 and a half feet off the ground differently from a low speed swinging arm to the top of the head a few inches off the floor then I can’t help you. You can disagree with the call, I know I do, but to act like it’s a huge indictment on the ref for showing a Welsh bias and using it to claim that “it’s getting beyond ridiculous at how differently Ref’s treat Wale’s compared to there opponents” is stupid. It’s not Wales’ fault that Fagerson, O’mahony, Sau and now Valetini have each seen red for contact with the head… Regardless you originally started by complaining with as much vigour about Tompkins’ try/Beale’s card which had nothing to do with player safety so forgive me for not buying your claim that you are only concerned with dangerous play or that you “will ever complain about player’s getting card’s but [you] will complain about inconsistent reffing”.
@@AA-vb2pq never once mentioned Tomkins try, did I. It wasn't the only knock on in that game by Wales. Since when was the swinging arm slow? He went for a player who was no where near the ball and hut his head and no matter how slow you feel it was it was a swinging arm to the head which is always punished with a Red unless there was mitigating factor's to drop it down from a Red to yellow do no way could you mitigate that down. I am not blaming Wales got any other team's poor discipline and horrendous decision making, that's on the team's but to say there wasn't inconsistency is ridiculous. A ref set's that bar by penalising a team for there poor discipline but to not penalise both team's in the same way for the same poor discipline is showing inconsistency. I thought exactly the same in the French V All Blacks game, where there was clear inconsistency by Barnes on certain things, like calling the Ball out of the ruck and flat passes. There is a great video on here by a Welsh guy who went through every inconsistent decision during the Welsh V Australia game. It's was inconsistent for both team's but he also focused on the card's that were and that should have been. I'm also waiting for Nigel Owens view on it which should be either this week or next. Can't remember when the interview is. I have seen his last few and he is very fair. Calls out bad decisions and/or explains why the ref made a certain decision
@@ocodeskamcdbsm If you weren’t referring to the Tompkins knock on, which knock on did you possibly think merited a yellow card? So you call for consistency, then are upset that Gareth Thomas was punished in exactly the same way as Alaalatoa was vs Scotland for a similar incident? To act like all contact the the head is punished the same is a little ridiculous to me, there are multiple mitigating factors which refs take into account and to act like you can’t see why Adamson reached the the conclusion he did for the Thomas incident is baffling. Like I said, I’d have handed out a red for it, but it’s not a reach to say that a yellow was fair too, based on level of danger and precedent. Nigel Owens’ take on the incident was similar to mine, he said “I can agree with a yellow card that Mike Adamson gave here because the degree of force was not particularly high. However, it was totally avoidable. For that reason, I would have gone with red.” You’re allowed to disagree with a ref’s decision and lament inconsistency but acting like it is almost all one way and claiming that Wales get treated differently to other teams doesn’t sound like genuine criticism, it sounds like bitterness. And that’s honestly how it came across. If you can point me to the alleged Welsh knock on that you claim should have been carded, I’ll give my honest thoughts on it, but so far nothing you have said has convinced me of this Welsh bias and beneficial inconsistency favouring them.
it is becoming all too regular that games of rugby are decided on refereeing decisions. name another sport where the influence of the referee means so much. Almost every single week the games are decided on penalties or interpretations. Some calls are made. Some are missed. This is a sad sad time for rugby. It's why NZ has been so good for so long. They took the referee out of the game by making sure they score enough points for him not to matter. but when every game is decided by 1 or 2 points then there really can't be a clear winner when it jsut comes down to 1 or 2 calls which could have gone either way.
I think you’re over-reacting to this. In any game with a referee or umpire there is every chance that outcomes are going to depend on decisions that can go either way. Games have been win or lost on refereeing decisions for as long as I can remember in rugby and other sports. Think of penalty decisions, or offside, in football. It always hurts more when it affects your team, but if you really feel that refereeing decisions are affecting the game, then you should focus on the laws, not the referees. They have as much technical help as you can possibly get to help with their decisions and they mostly do a pretty reasonable job. I think the laws on player safety in rugby are relatively easy to adjudicate. The most contentious laws, in my mind, are around the breakdown and whether an attacker is preventing release or the defender is holding on.
I don't get the difference in the Wallabies player getting a yellow for supposedly deliberately knocking on the deflected ball and the Welsh player doing the exact same thing (albeit backwards) and scoring an uncontested try. Their action was the same. It was just a matter of chance the ball went a certain direction for one and not the other. And how (ref) Adamson or TMO can establish intent of the former to be "cynical play" from what I saw must make them mind readers. What I saw was the Aussie fullback about to tackle the runner, then instinctively react to him shucking the ball awkwardly at the last second. Just a valid reaction to attempt for the ball - not an intent to stop play.
Basically Nick Tompkins (the welsh player) tried to either catch the ball to intercept it, or knock it down to stop their pass. If he had knocked it forward it would have been a penalty to Australia. But since it went backwards/down the referee said he could play on. I think everyone stopped because they thought he had knocked it forward.
@@tbownds9948 Thats why you play to the whistle. Don't assume it was a knock on or things like that will happen. Tough lesson but the referee got it right
The laws of the game say different. You can't lead into a tackle with your head and contact to the head of the opposing player is going to be red without mitigating factors.
"pulled back very clearly" whilst he has the ball in his hands, yeah welsh commentator mate I hate to break it to you but that is called a tackle. Unorthodox, but still a tackle.
Une fois de plus le pays de galles gagne sont match à 15 contre 14 voire 13 . Je trouve que les arbitres sont très complaisants avec les gallois. Ça devient pathétique.
Lol players and spectators should know and keep up with the rule changes. You play what's in front of you and to the refs whistle as Pivac said "even a 5 year old player knows that". 13 & 14 man Aus played very well but the team were ill disciplined. According to the rules Tompkins try was legit no apology needed by ref. Learn the rules win more games.
That's a nice idea. But all sports change and evolve nothing stays the same. I admit though rugby does have a lot of rule changes compared to some sports but much of it is for player safety do you really want players to get dementia/alzheimers age 45? Also as far as I remember if the ball goes backwards it's no knock on.
@@gwh3013 im no expert. but there were many occasions that one side was penalized for something that the other side was allowed to continue. after I posted my comment I saw other comments in vids about the highlights of the game where many were questioning the refs decisions.
The people that continually blame Wales for the foul plays by other teams are the same people who blame other people on the road when THEY are pulled over for speeding.
@@douglasstewart3889 your hurting your team lost but if the shoe was on the other foot and you had taken a 1 point win and we had red and yellow cards you wouldn’t be whinging and moaning and you call us lot the whinging Pom Fuck me
If I recall correctly, there was a red to the opposing side in almost every Wales game I remember from the last six nations. At some point, when there’s a common denominator like that it makes me wonder if they’re being coached to put their head into contact on offense deliberately, which would be extremely dangerous and cynical. It feels like they’re finding a way to exploit the stricter rules for safety, or maybe it’s just a freak aberration that there seem to be more reds given to teams playing Wales than when the same teams play anybody else.
@@9502937 To make a stupid comment like maybe their coached to put their head in a position that will lead to red cards and possible concussion and facial injuries shows how utterly clueless you are let Valetini run into you full tilt head on head and then come back on here and make that statement ffs clueless 🤬🤬🤬
Let's see.. Head clash + High force - Totally accidental = Red card Diving on a player on the ground + swinging arm to the head - lower amount of force + totally intentional = yellow card Seems legit.. Accidental dangerous play warrants a red but intentional foul and possibly dangerous play gets a yellow.
"It's a desperate grab at the shirt. That' s wrong". Oh diddums😕. Perfectly legitimate. Wales should have done a lot better than this against 14 Wallabies and for ten minutes just 13. Pretty unconvincing. That Scottish ref and the TMO need to be sacked.
Genuinely interested in what ref calls people thought were wrong. Poor tackle tech - head on head - easy red Deliberate knock on Beale - easy yellow Josh Adams did nothing wrong in the air Thomkins ball went back so can't be a deliberate knock on However - Thomas clear out should have been a red not a yellow
No way was it red. Both players had heads going in....which as the head is leading is not surprising. Welsh player shld have been yellowed for doing just what Beale did.
The responsibility for making the tackle safely is quite clearly on the tackler. This was a reckless tackle and deserved a red card. It’d have been close to one even before they put the new system in place, but under the current rules it’s absolutely clearly a red card.
Collide with the head of a 2nd row and you're not going to get looked on favourably. Besides, as has been mentioned, it's the tackler's responsibility. As for the intercept, if it went backwards (debate amongst yourselves!) then there is no law to say it's illegal, so try stands. If it did go forwards, it'd be decided on whether he was making a genuine attempt to catch. As he was swatting at it I think it'd be a yellow still, but it's nothing like Beale's really is it.
@@jofful123 I thought for a moment too, but I changed my mind when I saw that the tackle was around the hips and thighs… how could he therefore not release but still be in a completely different location with his hand on the ball? (Right in front of the ref too. Mind boggling.)
I don't understand what people are on about that's a clear red made no attempt to go low head on head contact its sad for the match but clear red But on the other hand wales should of had a red and the Tompkins try shouldn't of been allowed And yes I'm a Welsh fan
@@victorlin9096 Victor, the guy wrapped his arms and had hold of his Jersey after he hit him and held onto him as he went to ground. I can't see any angle where I think that's anything other than a fair tackle. The only issue I have is that his head isn't on the right side. The fact that this is a red card in International rugby union is truly a shame. No one can slate football for having jessies on the pitch anymore
@@stevenmcalister826 I'm calling it exactly what it is. If a ball travels backwards off a surface then it's not possible for it to be a knock on. The Aussie players should have played the whistle. Also Tom Wright was very lucky not to get carded
Why is grabbing by the collar wrong? The number of rules and their rubbery interpretation have always ruined rugby for me. Watching these highlights just confirms my disdain. More rules have not made the game better, which is a shame because there are some obviously talented and tough players. And how that was called knocked back is an absolute travesty. The Wallabies coach was right to sound off about the refereeing. Disgraceful.
It's all simple really, alot of the "newer" rules are there to protect player health, so they dont receive life changing injuries from head contact and dangerous tackles, and the one try was clearly shown to not be a knock on. At first I thought it was but from the refs point and TMO cameras its seen to not be, thus they didnt stop play, it isn't ANY of the officials fault that the Australian defence just decided to stop playing. If there was any actual rule breaking by the ref or any of the officials then the game would've been overruled but everything was within the world rugby rules, thus the game stands
You'd be angry if you were Dave Rennie at the indiscipline. Awful technique to give away an obvious red, and at the end, the last penalty, the tacklers weren't just offside - way, way, obviously, almost at the back of the ruck!
Australia got robbed..The Ref was all crap...learner refs over there.....All Black's...Australia...South Africa the best..we mite Lose a odd games .but we're the best..

Australia, instead of waving your arms about how about playing until the whistle blows? You could have grabbed him if you'd reacted but you're wasting too much time complaining to the ref. A well deserved loss.
1:51 'no mitigating factors'. It was accidental; head clashes traditionally are 'play on' because everyone knows theyre accidental; the tackle was otherwise not reckless; to consistently police head clashes in this way is near impossible - there, Ive listed 4. And how about it wasnt a swinging arm to the head to someone on the ground not near the ball? Oh thats right, that was a Wales player, so only a yellow card (even tho it followed a red card for dangerous play).
At this point we should praise pivac on how he manages to get the opposition so many cards...what a guy

Wales do not currently look like they have the finger on the pulse. I understand there are a lot of maybe first choice players injured, and one benefit of this autumn campaign is we have had a chance to get a lot of less experienced players some much needed international level experience against some of the best teams in the world, but Wales just looked a little aimless.

Unfortunately discipline and a few other mistakes cost them the game.

That coupled with not playing to the whistle etc cost Austrailia. I'm looking forward to a good rugby match between both of these teams in the Rugby World Cup.

HELP!
Please excuse my ignorance. I've only started watching rugby union, late in life and have never played it. Would appreciate if someone could explain why the player at 5:11, doesn't not get a yellow card, for the deliberate knock-on? One was awarded earlier in the match. If anything, this one looked more deliberate.
So, after the deliberate knock on at @5:11 , Australia re-gather the ball. You can see the referee put his arm out to signal they now have penalty advantage for that deliberate knock on. When Australia then lose the ball, the referee initially blows for a penalty to Australia, and would possibly have given a yellow card.
However, it seems the TMO or someone then draws the referee's attention to the Australian guy jumping really early for the high ball, and effectively taking out the Welsh player off the ball a few seconds before the deliberate knock on, and we all get to see a replay of that.
We imagine that play stops at the first offence, so the referee doesn't punish anything that happens afterwards (unless there's something really serious like a red-card offence).
Even if they hadn't had this earlier incident, the deliberate knock on might not have been a yellow card, because whereas the other one clearly prevented a pretty nailed on try, in this case there are a few Welsh defenders out wide, and there's a decent chance they will stop the move anyway.

Hahaha.. ref won the match for wales 😆😆😆
@@001dejawu i agree from my viewpoint but i don't want to be negative about things, it will only make things worse
As a neutral, I was absolutely appalled by the severe inconsistency in the Ref decisions. I have no issue with Beal's yellow card but how Wale's didn't get yellow for the exact same offense, more blatant than Beale or a Red for shoulder to Head is beyond me.
The Ref and his team made decision to penalise for deliberate knock on and hitting the head of the opponent but only if it were Australia doing the offense. Why would any team elect to play Wales in a friendly game if the game isn't referred fairly. Team's in the 6nations don't have a choice to play Wales unless they pull out which won't happen but seriously, it's getting beyond ridiculous at how differently Ref's treat Wale's, compared to there opponents
The ball went backwards out of Tompkins hands. Impossible to be carded for intentional knock on, if the ball doesn’t go forward. It’s not inconsistency when your talking about 2 different outcomes. I get you’re still salty about o’mahony’s (correctly handed out) red in the six nations, but I think it’s time to get over it by now don’t ya think?
@@AA-vb2pq I wasn't talking about that incident and I'm not salty about O Mahony's card as he deserved it. Majority of carded offenses, I have no issue with but to say there was no inconsistency in the reffing of the Wales V Australia game is just ridiculous. It was inconsistent for both sides. How a Wales player doesn't get a Red for a clear swinging hand to the head on a player that wasn't interrupting play is mind boggling. By sending off/Red carding the Australian for his head on head challenge was right so the Ref had set the Marker by not allowing any hits to the head which is absolutely right and then allowing Wales to not be penalised the same for a more deliberate hit to the head is clearly inconsistent. How can you not see that. The decision had been made to penalise any head contact as player welfare is paramount as it should be. I will never complain about player's getting card's but I will complain about inconsistent reffing
@@ocodeskamcdbsm I personally think Gareth Thomas should’ve seen red, but to act like you don’t understand why Adamson viewed a high speed head-on-head collision 6 and a half feet off the ground differently from a low speed swinging arm to the top of the head a few inches off the floor then I can’t help you. You can disagree with the call, I know I do, but to act like it’s a huge indictment on the ref for showing a Welsh bias and using it to claim that “it’s getting beyond ridiculous at how differently Ref’s treat Wale’s compared to there opponents” is stupid. It’s not Wales’ fault that Fagerson, O’mahony, Sau and now Valetini have each seen red for contact with the head… Regardless you originally started by complaining with as much vigour about Tompkins’ try/Beale’s card which had nothing to do with player safety so forgive me for not buying your claim that you are only concerned with dangerous play or that you “will ever complain about player’s getting card’s but [you] will complain about inconsistent reffing”.
@@AA-vb2pq never once mentioned Tomkins try, did I. It wasn't the only knock on in that game by Wales. Since when was the swinging arm slow? He went for a player who was no where near the ball and hut his head and no matter how slow you feel it was it was a swinging arm to the head which is always punished with a Red unless there was mitigating factor's to drop it down from a Red to yellow do no way could you mitigate that down. I am not blaming Wales got any other team's poor discipline and horrendous decision making, that's on the team's but to say there wasn't inconsistency is ridiculous. A ref set's that bar by penalising a team for there poor discipline but to not penalise both team's in the same way for the same poor discipline is showing inconsistency. I thought exactly the same in the French V All Blacks game, where there was clear inconsistency by Barnes on certain things, like calling the Ball out of the ruck and flat passes.
There is a great video on here by a Welsh guy who went through every inconsistent decision during the Welsh V Australia game. It's was inconsistent for both team's but he also focused on the card's that were and that should have been. I'm also waiting for Nigel Owens view on it which should be either this week or next. Can't remember when the interview is. I have seen his last few and he is very fair. Calls out bad decisions and/or explains why the ref made a certain decision
@@ocodeskamcdbsm If you weren’t referring to the Tompkins knock on, which knock on did you possibly think merited a yellow card? So you call for consistency, then are upset that Gareth Thomas was punished in exactly the same way as Alaalatoa was vs Scotland for a similar incident? To act like all contact the the head is punished the same is a little ridiculous to me, there are multiple mitigating factors which refs take into account and to act like you can’t see why Adamson reached the the conclusion he did for the Thomas incident is baffling. Like I said, I’d have handed out a red for it, but it’s not a reach to say that a yellow was fair too, based on level of danger and precedent.
Nigel Owens’ take on the incident was similar to mine, he said “I can agree with a yellow card that Mike Adamson gave here because the degree of force was not particularly high. However, it was totally avoidable. For that reason, I would have gone with red.”
You’re allowed to disagree with a ref’s decision and lament inconsistency but acting like it is almost all one way and claiming that Wales get treated differently to other teams doesn’t sound like genuine criticism, it sounds like bitterness. And that’s honestly how it came across.
If you can point me to the alleged Welsh knock on that you claim should have been carded, I’ll give my honest thoughts on it, but so far nothing you have said has convinced me of this Welsh bias and beneficial inconsistency favouring them.
it is becoming all too regular that games of rugby are decided on refereeing decisions. name another sport where the influence of the referee means so much. Almost every single week the games are decided on penalties or interpretations. Some calls are made. Some are missed. This is a sad sad time for rugby. It's why NZ has been so good for so long. They took the referee out of the game by making sure they score enough points for him not to matter. but when every game is decided by 1 or 2 points then there really can't be a clear winner when it jsut comes down to 1 or 2 calls which could have gone either way.
NZ are just the best as simple as that
@@Trajan2401 obviously yeah, 40-25
I think you’re over-reacting to this. In any game with a referee or umpire there is every chance that outcomes are going to depend on decisions that can go either way. Games have been win or lost on refereeing decisions for as long as I can remember in rugby and other sports. Think of penalty decisions, or offside, in football. It always hurts more when it affects your team, but if you really feel that refereeing decisions are affecting the game, then you should focus on the laws, not the referees. They have as much technical help as you can possibly get to help with their decisions and they mostly do a pretty reasonable job. I think the laws on player safety in rugby are relatively easy to adjudicate. The most contentious laws, in my mind, are around the breakdown and whether an attacker is preventing release or the defender is holding on.
Lol at the reffing wtf
What amazing commentary
I don't get the difference in the Wallabies player getting a yellow for supposedly deliberately knocking on the deflected ball and the Welsh player doing the exact same thing (albeit backwards) and scoring an uncontested try. Their action was the same. It was just a matter of chance the ball went a certain direction for one and not the other. And how (ref) Adamson or TMO can establish intent of the former to be "cynical play" from what I saw must make them mind readers. What I saw was the Aussie fullback about to tackle the runner, then instinctively react to him shucking the ball awkwardly at the last second. Just a valid reaction to attempt for the ball - not an intent to stop play.
8:27 can anyone help, what what this about? Still learning the rules.
Basically Nick Tompkins (the welsh player) tried to either catch the ball to intercept it, or knock it down to stop their pass. If he had knocked it forward it would have been a penalty to Australia. But since it went backwards/down the referee said he could play on. I think everyone stopped because they thought he had knocked it forward.
@@tbownds9948 Thats why you play to the whistle. Don't assume it was a knock on or things like that will happen. Tough lesson but the referee got it right

Should not be a red card....50/50 accidental head to head K.O....a yellow card will do.
The laws of the game say different. You can't lead into a tackle with your head and contact to the head of the opposing player is going to be red without mitigating factors.
well done wales
Break the rules facexthe consequences. That's what rules are for and are there to protect player safety when it comes to head collisions.
"pulled back very clearly" whilst he has the ball in his hands, yeah welsh commentator mate I hate to break it to you but that is called a tackle. Unorthodox, but still a tackle.
Une fois de plus le pays de galles gagne sont match à 15 contre 14 voire 13 . Je trouve que les arbitres sont très complaisants avec les gallois. Ça devient pathétique.

Ref had a good game. That was a red and a yellow for Aus. That was a try for Wales.
Agree …the ref spoiled the game
1) that shouldn’t be a red card(head on)
2) that was a clear knock on..pathetic Ref/TMO
Delusional
Lol players and spectators should know and keep up with the rule changes. You play what's in front of you and to the refs whistle as Pivac said "even a 5 year old player knows that". 13 & 14 man Aus played very well but the team were ill disciplined. According to the rules Tompkins try was legit no apology needed by ref. Learn the rules win more games.
That's a nice idea. But all sports change and evolve nothing stays the same. I admit though rugby does have a lot of rule changes compared to some sports but much of it is for player safety do you really want players to get dementia/alzheimers age 45? Also as far as I remember if the ball goes backwards it's no knock on.
Looks like wales had 16 men today. 15 in red and one in white with a whistle. Really poor refereeing.

If I recall correctly, there was a red to the opposing side in almost every Wales game I remember from the last six nations. At some point, when there’s a common denominator like that it makes me wonder if they’re being coached to put their head into contact on offense deliberately, which would be extremely dangerous and cynical. It feels like they’re finding a way to exploit the stricter rules for safety, or maybe it’s just a freak aberration that there seem to be more reds given to teams playing Wales than when the same teams play anybody else.
@@9502937 To make a stupid comment like maybe their coached to put their head in a position that will lead to red cards and possible concussion and facial injuries shows how utterly clueless you are let Valetini run into you full tilt head on head and then come back on here and make that statement ffs clueless 🤬🤬🤬
Wales are such and injury prone team... They always seem to be down to their B or C teams... 2015 & 2019 RWC were really bad for Wales...
Wow that ref sucks
Sometimes teams win matches when they don't deserve to. It happens.
Let's see..
Head clash + High force - Totally accidental = Red card
Diving on a player on the ground + swinging arm to the head - lower amount of force + totally intentional = yellow card
Seems legit..
Accidental dangerous play warrants a red but intentional foul and possibly dangerous play gets a yellow.
"It's a desperate grab at the shirt. That' s wrong". Oh diddums😕. Perfectly legitimate. Wales should have done a lot better than this against 14 Wallabies and for ten minutes just 13. Pretty unconvincing. That Scottish ref and the TMO need to be sacked.

No way was it red. Both players had heads going in....which as the head is leading is not surprising. Welsh player shld have been yellowed for doing just what Beale did.
The responsibility for making the tackle safely is quite clearly on the tackler. This was a reckless tackle and deserved a red card. It’d have been close to one even before they put the new system in place, but under the current rules it’s absolutely clearly a red card.
Eh? If you know the rules of rugby, you'd know that's as clear and obvious red card as you get.
The Aussie oesn't get low at all, he just crashes into the welsh guy face first
Collide with the head of a 2nd row and you're not going to get looked on favourably. Besides, as has been mentioned, it's the tackler's responsibility. As for the intercept, if it went backwards (debate amongst yourselves!) then there is no law to say it's illegal, so try stands. If it did go forwards, it'd be decided on whether he was making a genuine attempt to catch. As he was swatting at it I think it'd be a yellow still, but it's nothing like Beale's really is it.
And the 2nd Welsh try was after a knock on. They got one against Eng last season. Why do they always get away with it?
No it went backwards. It can't be a knock on if it goes backwards.

More rules have not made the game better, which is a shame because there are some obviously talented and tough players. And how that was called knocked back is an absolute travesty. The Wallabies coach was right to sound off about the refereeing. Disgraceful.

1:51 'no mitigating factors'. It was accidental; head clashes traditionally are 'play on' because everyone knows theyre accidental; the tackle was otherwise not reckless; to consistently police head clashes in this way is near impossible - there, Ive listed 4.
And how about it wasnt a swinging arm to the head to someone on the ground not near the ball? Oh thats right, that was a Wales player, so only a yellow card (even tho it followed a red card for dangerous play).
