Everybody saying Foley shat the bed / fucked it up / shoulda - coulda etc... are kind of missing the point.
Yes, the ref was trying to hurry it up, but by stopping and starting time he doesn't help clarify the situation, it adds to the confusion of the chaotic situation that the last 5 minutes was. Some of the backs are yelling at him, but he seemingly cannot hear them and is looking at the forwards. We hear the ref through the effects mics. Again, it is loud and chaotic.
The biggest issue is that this stuff happens in just about every professional rugby game. Usually more than once. And it basically never gets called. Ever. Common sense would suggest this was not the time to buck that trend, perhaps.
I posted another time that the TMO should run a clock on these timed scenarios, and feed the countdown to the ref who feeds it to the player as a countdown - penalty kicks, goal kicks etc...

Had to check the spdercam for the next score. Cane indicates for the sticks at 8:06 on the feed time, Barrett makes contact at 9:09 after starting his run at 9:07.
Law 8:21.
The kick must be taken within 60 seconds (playing time) from the time the team indicated their intention to do so, even if the ball rolls over and has to be placed again. Sanction: Kick is disallowed and a scrum is awarded.

No we didn't miss the point. We heard it 100 times now.

He means physically. The game of rugby football creates a localised time-dilation effect at the end of games.
To you and me 40 seconds passes but to the players in the centre of the field, hurtling through the void of space at near the speed of light, many years have passed.

Just leave it at that, mate. You wouldn't have said the rest if the situation was reversed.

Potato, potato.
Foley played chicken with the ref and lost. People are acting as if it’s the first time a ref has made a call near the end of the game.
The Wallabies still could have won too. The refs calls didn’t win the game….the AB try did.

You don’t like facts. Not my problem.

Nah, I would. For all the shit we AB fans get for blaming the ref, you haven't noticed that we're not immune from putting the blame on our players or coach? It was a random call but Foley also shat the bed.

It's not though. A call in the 80th is more important than a call in the 3rd, the fact we're discussing this call proves that.
