Furious England boss Eddie Jones goes on the attack over "rubbish" red card call
They were already down to 14 men at the time after Ellis Genge’s yellow card.
Henry Slade did brilliantly to race across and deny North with a perfect tackle into touch.

Tuilagi had offered support, too, but replays showed he had never wrapped his arms around his opponent.
Instead, his shoulder made contact with North’s head and O’Keeffe opted for a dismissal.
England were 33-16 ahead at the time but - then down to 13 men - conceded two late tries to almost come unstuck.
Jones, though, was furious with the decision to dismiss his centre
“I just find it bizarre," he said.

Hide Ad"I usually don’t comment but I can’t see how you can tackle a guy.
"You might as well just say let him go. As how else are you supposed to tackle him?
"This thing about where your arms are. What a load of rubbish.
"Manu was trying to kill the tackle. That’s the only thing he was trying to do.
"It's absolute rubbish. So I’m sorry. I’ve broken my rule."

Hide AdJones continued: "I just think there’s no common sense applied in that situation.
"Clearly the guy is falling, there’s a good chop tackle (before) and Manu’s coming over the top to kill the tackle.
“He’s doing everything he’s supposed to be doing and he gets red-carded. Come on.”
Jones also referenced playing against 16 opponents and - on Wales’ late flourish - added: “When you have a three man advantage they’re going to do some damage to you.
“And that’s what happened there. But I thought we were exceptional.”
Earlier, Tuilagi had scored a try to put England in the command as they sealed a third straight win and the Triple Crown.
