Im Australian and was gutted last night but after seeing replays of wallaby players yelling at Foley to kick the penalty, it's hard to argue with the decision

Time wasting has been prominent this season and im glad a ref finally made the call. When your own players are screaming at you to kick the ball, you know you have taken too long

Being a Kiwi, I thought the ref was right of course, but in reality, I did look at the replay a few times, & every body was telling him to kick, they would have won the game for sure if he had

97th year in a row XD XD XD I think the call was fair, but it feels wrong winning like that, and i bet it feels worse losing like that. Foley seemed almost seemed like he made the call to stall for time against what his team was screaming at him to do. He was playing a stupid game, and he won a stupid prize. he didnt need to risk it, kick it out, have faith in your team, play rugby, not silly buggers.

"Play on, please" "We play." "We play!" *blows whistle* "Time on." "We play." "We play." "No, no." *unintelligible, seems to be a warning about giving a scrum to black* "We play now." *blows whistle* "Time on." ..... "10!" *blows whistle* *penalty to NZ* 48 seconds passes between the time Australia were awarded the penalty and when Foley runs up to kick. Foley saying time was off is completely ridiculous. Raynal says "we play" five times, blows his whistle twice and says "time on" twice. It's a call that will be debated for years but you can't say Foley wasn't given multiple warnings about what was coming.

After reviewing Swain's dirty on Tupaea, Australia should have been minus a lock.

Time wasting is a blight on the game, should have been sorted years ago

Rules is rules. I just wish there was consistent application by all referees. I seem to remember the Aussies taking more than their minute once before without being blown for it, which cost the Springboks the game.

That the referee awarded a scrum to the AB's is irrelevant ( even though it was justified because of the time wasting ) . The Wallabies lost BECAUSE the AB's scored a try , the ref's decision had nothing to do with that outcome .

I am very happy to see Nick “Cry Me A River” White has recovered from his brutal tackle he took from Faff de Klerk. Small mercies.

Even his teammates were screaming at him to kick the ball out. He tried it on and got caught out

If Swain's actions had been punished as they obviously should, then the Wallabies wouldn't have been in a competitive position at the end of the game. Seems everyone is ignoring that fact, but they got to keep a player who'd engaged in an absolutely disgusting act of foul play and that placed them in a position that was unfair to the All Blacks. Plus he missed a clear forward pass and awarded a try for it, so the Wallabies got unfair advantages way more than any benefit to NZ.

Hard to believe it's been 97 years. But it's in the books, I checked.

77 seconds to make a decision. Hard luck Ozzy

Good Refereeing. Evidence shows a lot of communication and time-wasting was done thus the decision was executed by the referee correctly. Aus should apologize for trying to sway the ref.

When Aus was down to 13 men , Foley was also told to hurry up. All teams giulty of this and slowing the game down .At the end of the day, the ref is king ignore them at your peril

No.10 was confused...He looked backwards, not once but twice to his teammates who, instead of forming a defense line, stayed in a circle, having a chat, and turning their back to the pitch?! No.10 did not know what to do... While a few players [only 4 to be precise] encouraged him to kick the ball, the majority of his teammates [10 !!! of them] completely ignored the game and was wasting the time by standing in a circle?!

It's amazing how one person's mistake affects a lot of people, if not the whole Nation.🤣🥰 Foley almost became the hero of the night if only he could have kicked that last kick. But I guess we all made mistakes in life.🤣🥰

Remember the ABs took the scrum - they still needed to score the try!

As a Chinese born russian I wanted Australia to win because they make good t-shirts.

Ref had a shocker… but he wasn’t wrong on this one. He missed forward passes that led to tries, gives a yellow card when it should have been a red card all day long…

This was my first time watching a AFL match on TV . Not to bad 👍

He was stalling to ensure there was no throw in; waiting until everyone was onside? it was entirely unneccesary. He gambled and lost. The kiwis are famous for winning again and again after fulltime.

Frankly, I have had a gutsful of the continual time-wasting that goes on in the modern game - its an 80 minute game in which we only see about 30 minutes of actual ball-in-play. - Forwards having a committee meeting 15m away from the line-out and then ambling up to it - Players throwing or kicking the ball away or refusing to give the ball up at a penalty or free kick against them - Players throwing the ball away when forced into touch - Players taking an age to kick the ball into touch. Call me an old fart if you like, but in my day, we had our committee meeting *as we walked briskly to the line-out* . Of course, there is also the forever blight on the game that it takes an age to put down a bloody scrum. Again in my playing days, it was less than 15 seconds from the referee's whistle to the front rows coming together, another 1-2 seconds and the scrum-half had the ball in, and a few seconds later he had it back in play - referee's whistle to ball out in 20 seconds. Don't believe me? Watch then... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mtqUmaiQxrKUk30.html

You can see the other Australian players screaming at him to kick the ball. Just kick the f-ing ball. I hate the timewasting crap and it needs to be stopped. John Eales is remembered for taking one kick, Foley should be remembered for not taking one.

Wallabies try shouldve been reviewed for forward pass and then disallowed... the right result in the end

swings and round-abouts - the last aussie try was from a forward pass that was never picked up so you win some you lose some

Come on Aussie you had the penalty kick the ball out straight away. What were you thinking Foley. Now your crying about the Ref. Great win brothers All Blacks.. 97 years in a row hahaha

What goes around, comes around. Greetings from SA, how’s your stache Nic?

Jordie Barrett's try made up for the Foley forward pass to Kellaway.

All the alcohol in the world couldnt drown Foleys sorrows after that screw up! Good on ya NZ!👏🔥

The way Foley acted in that crucial moment.. it seems he thinks he himself ALONE got the Wallabies back in the game and that he ALONE pulled the strings in the come back.. Whatever rules they have in the rugby rule book, the Referee's WHISTLE is the SUPREME LAW of rugby. Ref made the right call. Good win for the All Blacks. Selfishness on Foley's part lost the game for the Wallabies. It would have been the greatest comeback win in modern rugby if he had taken that kick

All Foley had to do was to kick the ball out. By the time the line out was formed and the ball secured it would be game over. Poor game management from the Aussies, coupled with the French ref ( we know how that always ends) , and the AB's do what the AB's pre 2022 always do, score in the last 30secs.

Almost choked on my dinner on, “for the 97th year in a row” lol GO ABs!

White and the rest of those cheats got what they deserved after their antics in the last game…..😂 you lose Australia

As a Kiwi I’m getting whiplash and high blood pressure. Good on the ref for penalising The Wallabies for running the time down. They need to do this more often. Swain should have been red carded and Very pleased we won. Right result

The Aussies ALWAYS feel robbed but then they have always played outside the spirit of the game!

serious question.... what was he waiting for??? there was only one option...... kick the ball out.

Would have been a crazy harsh call - if not for the multiple plain warnings . he was underarm bowling for sure (showing my age for fun)

No!!! It’s time they realise that the rules apply to them too! They are a mediocre team at best , even when they clean rucks from the side or no arms tackles and off the ball negative play! Unfortunately some refs have turned a blind eye to all their desperate antics and made them think they are a better team than what they are!!!

When I used to play it didn't matter if the ref was right or wrong; what he said was gospel and you did it. He told Foley not to delay and that's what Foley with his chatting to team-mates and rolling the ball around did and paid the price.

Excuse me, to quote a famous rugby referee “this is not soccer”. You do not win a penalty, you are awarded a penalty. A penalty is the result of the opposition doing something wrong so by definition you haven’t won it. As for the penalty not being taken quickly, well watch his team mates behind him almost pleading with him to kick it and not dither about!

The Aussies don't mind when the ref rules in their favour. Like Kelleway's first try off a forward pass. Or getting away with collapsing the maul in front of the posts. Which led to a penalty to the wallabies. In the end the All Blacks scored a try which you had your chance to defend against, and you failed to do so.

The aussie way is to win at any cost just this time they got caught out. He knew time was on.

Aust just blew their only chance. All that hard work gone with 3 mins to go! The ref, his team mates and the crowd was telling him kick it out!!🙏 WC is the main focus for OZ now. NZ🇳🇿

Foley you muppet! Apparently the only bloke on the field who thought he was getting away with time wasting. Rule 20.5 explains why the Wallabies weren’t robbed, just let down by Foley….so frustrating. But hats off to the ref for the big call, as a fan I want more refs to police time wasting in all matches.

Troy Winn has said all that has to be said. The ref applied the rules as stated and well done for him.

A referee won't make that call! Don't push your luck. All you had to do was kick it out and trust your team will defend for the last 1-2 minutes. Don't rely on milking the clock.

I like the humour in this. “97th year in a row” haha

In fairness to Australia - FOLEY gave that game to NZ - this is the conversation to the ref after he blew his whistle. Foley - I heard you the first time and the second time, but i definitely did not hear you the third time Aussie backs - YOU F/wit Foley - all you had to do was kick the F/fing ball out French Referee - Isa too late Foley - French Referee - Scrum, all black put in Yahoo - NZ scores another match winner Foley after the final whistle goes - I'm going straight home now - I'll shower at home

Genuinely awesome videos by this legend 👍

Even the Wallabies players were telling him to hurry up and kick the ball nek minute

Love Raynal for this decision, he refereed like if it was the first minute! Foley ignored Raynals instructions three times and so Raynal turned the ball over to the All Blacks …… absolutely correct. Maybe watch the clip back where Raynal tells off Nic White for his complaints after the game …..Raynal was spot on!

Even the Aussie centre was shouting at his halfback to hurry up and kick the ball

Just keep in mind: Australia had 4 options to consider: 1) Tap kick and run 2) Kick for posts 3) Call for the scrum 4) Go for touch.

He should’ve tapped it and ran a full field try

He was aware of what he was doing...cost them the game...and a hand on the cup...

Lol sure he thought the time was off 😄😄😄😄😄

It was a great game of rugby! It was a bit tough on the Aussies but that’s the best they have played in many many years!

I’m just so happy nick whites moustache is ok

pls somebody explain, why did the ref called time off and was there whistle blown to restart the game? (sorry didn't watch the game)

If the ref is gonna be incredibly pedantic for 79 minutes, you should probably expect him to be incredibly pedantic for 1 more minute

The Kiwis were leading on the bad calls from the ref by at least 2 to 1 and they still won the game.

Rules are rules and Aus had three warnings on that final kick, it's shame all things considered!

Comment from a WB fan .....There were 2 WB decisions even more crazy than Raynal’s imo. a) The decision to give Foley the line kick job during any game - For 4 years WB fan watched with growing dismay as we watched Foley stuff up line kicks with short inacurrate popguns that often failed to go out, or gained minimal metres. Cheika eventually replaced him with Hodge. But appears Rennie didn’t watch those 4 WB years closely. WBs had much better kickers on the feild last night in White, Kellaway, Ikitau, even Koroibete. b) Foley found a new way to stuff it up last night - he just didn’t kick at all. If WBs were stupid enough to give the line kicking job to Foley again we should keep our handkerchiefs close for either laughing, or crying. So after 80 mins of watching Foley execute poor line, and open feild, kicks he gave WB fans reason to cry………again

Ref should blow the whistle to ▪️ STOP time and indicate clearly that time is Stopped. ▪️START time with similar indicators as above. (for instance when he starts the game) ▪️CONFIRM with BOTH captains that they are ready and he can RESTART the clock. (Refer starting the game) Confusion runes careers !!

Keep these coming 😂

Golden lesson: don’t piss off the ref by ignoring his directives!

Aussies too slow to lineouts all-night and then Foley clearly milkn the clock at the end lost Aussie the game..no robbery..good job nz

The Aussies did it to themselves it’s called karma his team mates were screaming at him to kick the ball

Les propres coéquipiers de Foley lui hurlaient de botter le ballon. Je n'ai jamais vu un arbitre prendre cette décision auparavant mais, techniquement, l'arbitre était parfait. Cette fois, les bouffonneries gaspillées devraient cesser.

97th in a row wow how long has the wallobs had it for must be a record that hasn't been broken congrats our all blacks proud kiwi 👏

After the horrible reffing job that happened during the springboks game I’m not surprised this game got controversy especially after the Aussie darcy didn’t get a red for that horrible attempt to injure someone

Wallabies were trying to run the clock out good call by ref,this should be a leason to all players Dont fkn waste time

At least Foley didn’t use sandpaper!

There's some good players in that Aussie team that's for sure and its obvious they are getting better. But there's some not good players in that Aussie team and it's obvious they're not getting better.

Sorry All Blacks I forgot to praise you all.BLOODY GREAT EFFORT on the part of EVERYONE involved and thank you all once again.Let THE CUP runneth over with CELEBRATIONS.

That ref sounded exactly like Hot Rod from Transformers, the last knight. I stop the time lol

2 in the sin bin and they were running that clock down too

As a kiwi we'll take the win, not gonna dwell on what should of been or could of been it is what it is done and dusted, but to me overall it was a great game played by two mighty sides with an outstanding wallabie comeback, a game played to the whistle lack of discipline displayed by bothsides but as we all know the abs will always have that never say die attitude and give a full hearty 80mins+ of footy not 77mins like Aussie did, hence the abs luckywin.

Karma is a bitch as this was a filthy game by Australia even gifted a forward pass to score. If this is how they perform to win I’m changing my allegiance and crossing the Tasman to fully support the AB’s

It’s funny how foley didn’t listen to the ref on number of occasions, when they scored off the forward pass the ref asked him to hold off the conversion but he couldn’t of kicked any quicker, and vice versa at the end 😂😂😂🤦🏽

Like the first game Australia vs South Africa Australia broke lost of rules like no arms tackle and been a soccer players and taken a dive to get a Penalty only difference is you didn't get caught and you win the game so its fine to win like that 😉

WARNING! Australian Federal Police are on high alert this morning, after reports of an assault last night in Victoria. Police have interviewed 15 men, after they were caught exposing themselves and were quickly set upon by another group of large men dressed All in Black. Please do not approach these individuals, they were last seen boarding a flight to New Zealand. Police have asked the victims to seek counselling & do not seek any retribution. Stay safe stay home, don't drink & drive.

Fear makes men do crazy things. What were you scared of Bernard?Just kick the freaking thing.

Kiwi’s never give up attitude it’s never over till it’s over

Good team aussie pheewh they had us up against the wall👍🏽 who was that ref omg i want to buy him a schooner and a box of choclates 😂🤣 saved our butts ...end of the day i support all southern hemisphere teams going into the next rwc ...go boys give em all an uppercut

Your videos are great thank you

Lets be honest, even if the decision was right or wrong, it happened. The real question should be why there's so much inconsistency between all the referees, it borders on absolute blatant idiocy and other times can be seen as an honest mistake. But then we have the TMO's, who should certainly be able to overturn a bad decision, go back to the mark and try it again. The fans are not happy, the referees don't get sanctioned, the players get blamed/hated/ridiculed but the referees just keep on making the same mistakes over and over. No consequences to even speak of. When Rassie called out the BS (or didn't) he was castrated, fined and banned from even being a waterboy. Not fair in my view and if it continues on this trajectory I don't want to be part of it anymore. I love this game, but I refuse to ruin my weekends by screaming at the referees anymore.

It's funny how everyone is talking about this but yet forget about the yellow card for the ruck Infringement around the legs should have been a red card easy !! And then the hit in the ruck on the back of the head before that and we all can't forget about the forward pass and they new it that is why they took the kick real quick after the replay was shown so I can't complain but can we say it was a fair game or not ??

Robbed? I fort the reff warn 3 times

They were not robbed at all. They are responsible for their own downfall. This comes from all their time wasting, negative and disruptive play. Karma came around and kicked them in the but. The Ref made the right decision. Good for him.

They probably deserve to win but they played the clock and it backfired. They still had the opportunity to tackle for the win and didn't. Stiff cheese 😇🇳🇿

97th year in à row won it for me lol

Aussies were robbed? I think you mean poetic justice after the illegal tackle from Korebeti on Mapimpi

Aaaahhh the underarm debacle from cricket has come back to haunt the Wallabies in rugby.

Reminds of that show when I was a kid called Bernards watch 😭

They weren't robbed. Shouldn't have been trying to run down the clock. Ref made the correct decision and a brave one considering the match was in Australia

Albeit not the way to win, if you are getting warned and don't adhere, dont huff and puff when it doesn't go your way. TBF Darcy Swain's shot on Quinn Tupaea's leg should have been red carded, which would have been 45mins with 14men.

The correct call. Why is it always the half backs that act like little Dennis the Menace clones. No excuses for Foley. Australia were also lucky that Darcy was not sent off for his highly dangerous attempted take out. The player the idiot took out will probably be out for the season. Australia only have themselves to blame for losing.
