Back to EpisodesWallabies vs Lions - Did the Refs Get it Right? Tony Johnson on Late Controversy in Melbourne
Description
Longtime Sky Sport rugby commentator Tony Johnson joins Martin Devlin to dissect a Wallabies-British & Irish Lions test that had everything - brilliant rugby, controversy, and drama to the final whistle. TJ explains why the last-minute call on a potential illegal cleanout by the Lions was a true 50-50, and why overturning the try would have been monumental. Despite Australia’s explosive start, driven by the impact of Will Skelton and Rob Valetini, the Lions were able to turn the tide in the second 40. TJ highlights how Wallaby bench weakness and key errors proved costly in a game that could have gone either way. Beyond the Lions fallout, Tony and Marty preview NPC’s return, and share insights on the Black Ferns’ World Cup squad and why some big names missed out.
