With Australia down by six points in the dying minutes of the game Kuridrani broke the line with Folau unmarked outside him, but the Brumby opted to back himself for the winner.
While the gamble paid off, Folau was devastated to miss the opportunity to break an eight-match try drought in his 50th Test.
“He was very pissed off with me but we’ll deal with it after,” Kuridrani admitted.
The Wallabies next match is against France on Sunday morning (AEDT).
