The referee missed a fair bit that England got away with as well, a high short from Morley a obvious knock-on and so on.

Personally I would have preferred Thierry Alibert as referee, not the best but no worse than Leon Williamson.

More should be done to try and get better referees from nations like France and New Zealand so that all international matches can have good neutral referees so that the Aussies or any other nation for that matter can't try and influence referees.

Thought the video ref was Phil Bentham

that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan
