The TMO wasn't even needed, nothing prevented the ref from seeing that blatant foul.
Fiji are being so screwed by referees at this tournament.
Ugh wtf. Does World Rugby hate Fiji??
Nic White is very lucky. That was really careless.
Swinging arm, clearly.
Players rarely protest, if the captain didn't spot it no one will talk. But in this case the ref has no excuse.
Honestly it's feeling like the rulebook goes out the window when Fiji are playing. This is ridiculous.
Now the Aussie hooker taking a throw in with both feet on the pitch.
To a crooked line!
Australian thrower on the pitch for that lineout.
That maul should lead to a yellow, not only Australia collapsed it but two players came from the side and an other one played the ball on the ground. The ref didn't even talk to the players involved.
Yep the one playing it on the ground was just hilarious. Feck this shit.
Beautiful penalties from the Fiji kicker. Really on fire.
It tells me that australians know that they are getting away with it, it's not normal for players to do it that blatantly.
Fiji looking much better even playing against the refs again
Finally an offside penalty
Australia have offered nothing. One extremely questionable try
Three shit line-outs in a row. Feck sake
Been all Fiji, Australia so fortunate to have a try here.

It looks like Fiji are winning the impact on scrums which is surprising.
Come on Fiji! Been the much better side so far and unlucky not to be further ahead here.
Hopefully Eddie Jones gets sent packing soon.

Excellent half from Fiji.
And they’d been flawless for the first 35 minutes. So frustrating.
Do we think that Fiji are unlucky or we are in presence of actual bias?
Two games is a small sample size but it looks that way. Hard to explain away otherwise.
Ha! Great stuff
And what a conversion!
Fiji actually getting decisions now.
The lack of high balls from Australia is surprising. Against France their backs showed that they are dangerous in that department.
Fiji looking to shit the bed. Can Aussie take advantage though?
This has turned into an extremely low quality game of rugby. Both teams playing horribly. Fiji hanging on though.
I don't like that ref.
Crowd think he lost that as he was touching it down but nowadays I think that's always given
That was a shoulder charge. Fiji got the TMO rub there
Ping pong back and forth 
Yep very very lucky there.
Eddie Jones
The producer is showing us the same couple of aussies.
I've been enjoying the look of quiet panic on his face.Eddie Jones
