NRL: The NRL 360 panel discuss the controversial play-the-ball techniques used by the Penrith Panthers during their comeback win against the Parramatta Eels.
The NRL has come under fire for failing to crack down on the game’s illegal play the ball epidemic , after the Panthers used the loose officiating to their advantage against the Eels., Penrith were tackled 11 times in the three sets preceding their late tries in their comeback win over the Eels, with just one genuine play the ball attempted in this period.
The veteran journalist believes the club have “specific sets where they know they’ll want to score or put something on and they’re in the danger zone where they’ll just go for it. “This should’ve been nipped in the bud in March. That’s the problem, they’ve let it go too long now.”Having spoken to the game’s governing body a fortnight ago, Ritchie revealed the NRL are hesitant to crack down on the issue right before finals for fear of upsetting the players and the fans.
