Another Kiwi ref for Wallabies v Springboks

A New Zealand referee will again take charge of the Rugby Championship encounter between Australia and South Africa.

Ben O'Keeffe will take the whistle in Sydney on Saturday, with last weekend's referee in Adelaide, Paul Williams, an assistant referee this week.

Frenchman Tual Trainini is the other assistant referee, while Kiwi Brendon Pickerill will again be the television match official (TMO).

Williams copped flak for his officiating during last weekend's Test, which the Wallabies won 25-17 in Adelaide. Debatable incidents included the controversial last-gasp tackle of Marika Koroibete to deny Springbok winger Makazole Mapimpi a try, and the yellow card dished out to Bok scrumhalf Faf de Klerk for "slapping" opposite number Nic White in the face at a scrum.
