Ashley Klein has been appointed as the NRL’s grand final referee as head office heeded Penrith coach Ivan Cleary’s call and overlooked Chris Butler for officiating duties.
Klein will take charge of Sunday’s decider between the Panthers and Melbourne in what represents his third NRL grand final appointment.
But Butler was snubbed in the aftermath of Penrith’s preliminary final win over Cronulla.
Butler was the video referee who incorrectly took a try off the Panthers for an obstruction call and earned the ire of Cleary.
The Penrith coach said the appointment of a grand final bunker official was the biggest the NRL’s football department could make this year.
Butler was not included in a list of official released by the NRL on Tuesday with Grant Atkins named as the video referee.
