MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Australia's one-point loss to Wales and Dave Rennie's angry tirade against match officials neatly captured the frustrations of the Wallabies at the end of a see-sawing season that ultimately fizzled out.

Reduced to 14 men after an early red card, Australia were gallant in the 29-28 defeat in Cardiff but the reverse ensured they finished their European tour without a win for the first time in 45 years.
