Australia coach Dave Rennie has claimed World Rugby conceded the match-deciding officiating call by Mathieu Raynal in last week's Bledisloe Cup match was wrong.
The Wallabies lost a dramatic encounter to the All Blacks after Raynal pinged Australia fly-half Bernard Foley for time-wasting in the final minutes in Melbourne. The decision naturally became a huge talking point given its importance in terms of deciding the result, with New Zealand scoring from the resulting scrum to win the game.
All Black coach Ian Foster called it "very clear cut", but Rennie sought clarification from the sport's governing body while Rugby Australia also wrote to World Rugby to voice its concerns over refereeing. Many pundits and players were also stunned by the bold call so late in the game.
