I beg to differ. Grosso made contact with the the Australian not the other way round. Grosso ran into him after the 'block'. I agree maybe he should have blocked by staying upright (I would have), but that doesn't change the fact that Grosso moved the ball to his right and instead of following the ball he ran straight into the defender so he could fake obstuction. That will always be a dive to me. Maybe not bookable, but no way a penalty - it should have been play on.
