有啥可支招的。先去参加调解,实事求是说明情况,看调解员怎么调解。如果调解结果不满意,上庭看审判员怎么审判。
Tenancy Service说不是你们的责任,这不妨碍房东告你。他告你未必能赢,但他有权利告你。
简单看看

What the tenant’s not responsible for
[size=1.6em]The tenant is not responsible for repairs or damage arising from burglaries, natural events (such as storms, floods and earthquakes), or fair wear and tear.
Who’s responsible for fixing damage depends on who caused it
[size=1.6em]If a landlord or their property manager damages a tenant’s goods, the tenant can ask them to repair those goods, or to pay the cost of replacement or repair. [size=1.6em]If a tenant (or their invited guests) intentionally or carelessly damage the landlord’s property, the tenant must tell the landlord. The landlord can ask the tenant to repair the damage, or to pay the cost of replacement or repair. [size=1.6em]Tenants need to tell the landlord if they know of any damage or need for repairs. If the tenant does not notify the landlord as soon as possible the landlord may be able to claim some of the costs of repairing the damage from the tenant if it gets worse. [size=1.6em]One exception to this is a recent High Court case, which is currently under appeal. It found that a tenant who caused damage by fire was not liable for the damage if the fire was not caused intentionally or by an act or omission that would be regarded as a criminal act, where the landlord has insurance coverage against such damage. In this case, the High Court found that certain provisions of the Property Law Act 2007 are able to be applied to residential tenancy arrangements.
