Difficult to tell from just the highlights and internet articles but it seems NZ were flattered by the scoreline. The first try should have ruled out and a penalty awards to Aus and yellow card for the contact with the eye area on Kane Douglas. The second try had a hint of knock on when the ball squirts out the back of the maul and there is a slip in midfield which left the defence scrambling. The third try was class thou.
No doubt NZ deserved the win but disappointed with the inconsistencies in the application of the law regarding contact with eyes compare this incident to the Chris Ashton one a few months ago
Well done Argentina two close games show there isn’t much between these two at the moment
