NRL: Storm coach Craig Bellamy speaks to the media after their round 20 victory against the Roosters.

While they won the game, a controversial penalty ruled against them could have proved costly to the Panthers in theirIn the 56th minute, the Dolphins were awarded a penalty 25 metres out after Panthers hooker Mitch Kenny was judged to have tackled Isiaya Katoa just after the Dolphins half had just kicked the ball.

The Dolphins took the two on offer, with Jamayne Isaako slotting the kick to give his side a 26-12 lead.As referee Adam Gee explained to Panthers captain Nathan Cleary, Kenny didn’t hit him late, but when Katoa was in a “vulnerable position”. The only place to watch every game of every round LIVE with no ad-breaks during play is Fox League, available on Kayo. New to Kayo?“It’s not late. He doesn’t make a genuine tackle. When he’s on one leg kicking, he’s in a vulnerable position,” Gee said.“I don’t reckon he could pull out of it there Kenny. He’s going at such pace. Surely you’re allowed to put pressure on the kickers,” Roach said.

“If you see how fast he was going to try and put pressure on. If you don’t put pressure on the kickers, what will your coach say to you?“Well it used to be when both feet were off the ground not necessarily when you’re on one leg. I can mount a case for Kenny. It’s not late,” Voss said.
