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.
