How on earth is that missed at this level?

Another reason neutral refs are a must at international level.

I don't doubt for a moment most refs intend to play fairly - but unconscious bias is something else. I bet this ref supports Australia at cricket, RU, football...everything, so if he sees a hint of a touch there's every chance he can unconsciously decide not make the call, and 2 seconds later the decision is gone.

It's such an easy problem to solve yet competition after competition the RLIF continue to cast the same shadow on key games.

Oh look, there's another one. Terrible decision.

So you can lie in the ruck and prevent the both and that's a penalty to you?

Bateman needed 4 or 5 men there so hodgson kicks it. Bad decision.

Should’ve spread that ball to the right, why is Hodgson playing as an extra half?
