NRL: Sione Fainu was denied a try by the video referee after inconclusive footage on his put down over the line.

A controversial Tigers no try against the Raiders has created debate during their clash at Campbelltown Stadium.

In the 25th minute, rookie forward Sione Fainu received an Api Koroisau pass and did well to carry a few Raiders over the try line, where he attempted to ground the ball. Fainu claimed a try but referee Todd Smith sent it up to the Bunker as no try, believing the ball was held up. The only place to watch every game of every round LIVE with no ad-breaks during play is Fox League, available on Kayo.A look at the replay showed that Fainu got extremely close but it was hard to ascertain whether the ball had touched the grass because the arm of the Raider was covering the ball on the best possible camera angle.“It’s going to be hard to take it off him... His arm isn’t completely under the ball.

After several looks at the reply, the Bunker would eventually decide to support the decision of the on-field referee because of insufficient evidence to overturn.Young guns fire for Tigers early! | 01:19Fox League’s Greg Alexander agreed with the Bunker’s ruling, although Michael Ennis did not.“Once you couldn’t see the ball touch the ground well the Bunker can’t see it tiuch the ground.
