No he didn’t get it right

This is what’s wrong with the game

You hear him warn the Pom as it happens thinks nothing more of it and goes back 5 minutes later to look at it with the TMO

It is terrible for the game. It’s pathetic. Why not blow the penalty at the time? Because he knows there is nothing in it.

Terrible officiating
I'm not sure I agree that it was the wrong call but I agree with you that he wasn't going to do anything about the hair pull if Swain hadn't reacted.

If you look at Mario’s gibberish at the line out to try and out of Dave’s throw to lineout amongst other stuff is Eddie Jones clearly given instructions to get his players to get under the wallabies skin which unfortunately with swain shown it has worked.

He was never going to do anything about it until the play was stopped and the TMO wanted to have a look in slow motion.

We simply must fix the game, shit like this and the double handed push to the face of Swain misses earlier can be dealt with post game. Give them a fine for or a game if it warrants it and move on.

Being down a man for more than half the game for that kills the spectacle.

Whatever happens, balding “disguise it with a mullet” bloke comes off looking like a complete spanner. Imagine blowing up your reputation for a nothing test in Perth.

Michael Hooper is a poor referee communicator, rather than arguing Swain didn’t deserve a red he should’ve pushed for Hill to get one, players have received bans for pulling hair.

I get where you are but you can't retaliate. End of
