Is that the normal flow for volleyball? If the refs disagree, just replay the point? Even if one ref clearly saw the play?
The call belongs to the first referee. Either he/she takes the second referee's information and goes with that call, or stick with the original decision. Replay should not be an option here. Line judges, if used, should also be giving information here.
