    Watch: Controversial non-try (Highlanders vs Blues)

    Video published on August 2, 2020

    While it did not affect the outcome of the match, referee Mike Fraser’s decision to disallow Dalton Papalii’s try following witty gamesmanship from Aaron Smith in the buildup came under scrutiny.

    Fraser initially awarded Papalii’s try before reversing his decision after deeming Blues prop Karl Tu’inukuafe to have impeded Smith – when replays showed the Highlanders scrumhalf attempting to persuade Fraser to award a penalty in his team’s favour.
