Photo / GettyA 14-man Wallabies outfit has overcome the controversial send-off of Marika Koroibete to notch a 33-30 win against France and record an unlikely series victory. It was the first time since the Wallabies' series win over Les Bleus in 2014 that they had won a test series on home soil. An 80th minute maul turnover from Darcy Swain sealed victory for the Wallabies just minutes after Noah Lolesio kicked a tough penalty to break a 30-30 deadlock to seal a famous win. But it was the red card handed to Koroibete just five minutes into the match that was the talking point. World Rugby's crackdown on high tackles has come under fire after Wallabies winger Koroibete was handed a red card for a tackle on French captain Anthony Jelonch.
