That red was farcical.
I'm going to watch the AFL.
O'Keefe should be called in for a video review of some of his foul play decisions in NZ during SR and ordered to explain the glaring disparity.

What I love most about this game, other than how marvellous winning with a man down for 75 minutes, is that I had $2.50 on Tupou as last try scorer at 51:1. Didn't see any odds from Ravi......
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.
That was a cracker of a game. Almost ruined by some disappointing officiating.

It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa

I went and had another look at the high tackle law after the match.
Did anybody realise that any tackle, where contact is made to the head is foul play regardless of circumstances? Therefore O'Keefe was absolutely correct in his application of law with regards to red carding koroibete.
I am at a loss to explain why he didn't penalise the hundreds of other incidental head contact tackles in the game.
In breaking news, Lachie Swinton plays a full game of rugby without being carded.

Also, everyone seems to be ignoring that Koroibete's 'tackle' was a shoulder charge. His right arm was inside and had no chance of making the tackle.

Just saw a tweet from some bloke called Sam Bruce stating that 691k people watched the Test last night on channel 9.
Would be keen to see the Stan numbers.
