Australia coach Dave Rennie said he had never seen a call like the one French referee Mathieu Raynal made that cost his side victory over New Zealand, but the All Blacks' Ian Foster insisted the decision was "clear cut".
MELBOURNE :Jordie Barrett grabbed a try after the siren as the All Blacks snatched a 39-37 win over Australia in a Rugby Championship thriller in Melbourne on Thursday that sealed the Bledisloe Cup - with the help of a controversial referee decision.
MELBOURNE : Australia coach Dave Rennie criticised referee Mathieu Raynal for lacking a "feel" for the game situation after the French referee's late intervention cost the Wallabies dearly in their last-gasp defeat to the All Blacks on Thursday.
Certain things in rugby union never seem to change. Australia have not hoisted the Bledisloe Cup since 2003 and their breathless 39-37 defeat to New Zealand in Melbourne on Thursday has extended that sequence. The difference on this occasion was the unique manner victory was ripped from the Wallabies’ grasp, courtesy of one of the more dramatic refereeing interventions in the history of the fixture.
New Zealand snatched a last-gasp victory over Australia through Jordie Barrett's injury-time try in a highly controversial finish to the Bledisloe Cup clash in Melbourne.
New Zealand's Jordie Barrett scored a try at the death as his team beat Australia 39-37 in a thriller on Thursday to put one hand on the Rugby Championship trophy and retain the Bledisloe Cup for a 20th year.
And so it all comes down to this. Australia against New Zealand. The Bledisloe Cup on the line. Neither team is in form, with two dazzling wins and two dizzying losses apiece in this Rugby Championship. But in the fourth round a fortnight ago, the All Blacks rebounded to blitz Argentina 53-3 while the Wallabies crashed to earth, smashed 24-8 by South Africa. Now New Zealand on top of the table, Australia are third and either side can still win both trophies on offer.
SYDNEY : Australia flyhalf Bernard Foley has lost plenty of matches to New Zealand, including a World Cup final, but is grateful that one more chance to have a crack at the All Blacks has come out of the blue.
