Australia head coach Joe Schmidt, speaking to the media: “We lost a couple of guys at scrum time and it gave them an access point. Finn kicked superbly off one penalty. That’s the sort of skill you have to respect.”
On should the match-winning try have been disallowed: “Players make errors, match officials make errors, we felt it was a decision that doesn’t live up to the player safety push they’re talking about. Read the law. We just have to accept it. It is what it is. But we’ve watched the replay several times.
“You only have to look at law 9.20. A player who dives off his feet, beaten to the position, makes head contact. It was a tough one to take.”
