Salty New Zealand fans have accused Australian referee Ashley Klein of being biased following their 16-14 defeat to the Kangaroos at the Rugby League World Cup.
In what was an epic semi-final in Leeds at Elland Road, the Kangaroos advanced to the final against either England or Samoa thanks to a second half try from Cameron Murray.
The lead changed hands six times in the high quality encounter, with Kiwi supporters adamant Klein favoured Mal Meninga's side in the big moments.
Plenty of frustrated fans took to social media to voice their frustration at Klein, who denied North Queensland Cowboys centre Peta Hiku two tries.
Speaking in commentary, veteran caller Andrew Voss said he 'wasn't convinced' after a video official ruling that Jordan Rapana was off-side from a Jahrome Hughes kick.
