NRL: Dragons coach Shane Flanagan spoke to the media following their Round 17 victory over the Dolphins.
In a rare occurrence , the Cowboys lost two men to the sin bin at different times of the first half in their clash against the Panthers, including one for a trip which could see a North Queensland rising star face scrutiny from the match review committee.
However, North Queensland would lose a second man to the sin bin in the 33rd minute when rookie centre Jaxon Purdue tripped Panthers fullback Daine Laurie just before the try line. The trip wasn’t picked up by the on field officials at the time, but detected by the Bunker at the end of Penrith’s set.“I had to thought it had to be a penalty and most likely a sin bin,” Warren Smith added.
