Rugby World Cup 2003 semis

Australia vs New Zealand

All Blacks fullback Malili 'Mils' Muliaina looks at the referee for a favourable decision on his attempted try.

The attempt came against the run of play in the first 10 minutes of the match, but after repeated viewings the video official ruled that Muliaina was not in control when the ball hit the ground.

The decision came as a dampener for the All Blacks, who were just starting to find their rhythm after having failed to so much as touch the ball for the first seven minutes.
