But even 30 minutes later, a gobsmacked Contepomi couldn’t bring himself to wave it away with an “all’s well than ends well”. But it’s fair to say the referee and the match officials, to put it mildly, had a rough day. The game ended in a loss for the Wallabies but oddly enough, the crackling atmosphere was arguably one of the best in years, possibly decades. But patience also the key to being more clinical, a bit more boring and winning a game like the one at Allianz Stadium. “We’ve got to weigh up whether the risk is actually worth the reward there.” For all the Australian fury at the referee team, the takeaway for the Wallabies is Contepomi was fuming too.
