This is my point though! the outrage should be taken out of questions by having a neutral ref in every game.

The only question is when that outrage will occur?
If England beat the Kiwis and are effectively qualified for the Final prior to facing the Aussies, the Aussies may well look the other way or agree to an English referee. That way, they can then insist on an Aussie ref for the Final to even things up.
Of course, like you I also would like the outrage removed and neutral refs appointed at all times. Unfortunately, our lot and the Aussies prefer to play their immature power/mind games instead by insisting upon their own refs being appointed.
It's boring, it's embarrassing and it's very immature.
Unfortunately, it's typical of a sport run by a bunch of insignificants who enjoy being big splashes in small pools.
