Furious Wallabies | New Zealand referee under attack for celebrating with Fiji
Rugby NewsSunday, 22 September 2019 at 21:32
Fox Sports claims Kiwi referee Ben O'Keeffe 'committed the cardinal sin' by giving a low five to a Fijian player after their second try to Waisea Nayacalevu.
"Regardless of his intentions or the motivations behind the gesture, it just shouldn't happen," the Fox Sports story says.
However, Wallabies supporters were not the only fans angry with O'Keeffe as Fiji fans joined them in venting their frustrations.
O'Keeffe is set to officiate France v USA on October 2 and Japan v Scotland October 13.

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
