‘Had to be a sin bin’: Penrith’s lucky break as Bathurst clash marred by controversial calls

The Panthers can consider themselves lucky not to lose a man to the sin bin after halfback Brad Schneider wasn’t disciplined for what looked a clear professional foul on Tigers centre Justin Olam.However, just as Tupou was passing inside to a streaking Olam, the Tigers centre was tripped up by an ankle tap from Schenider and fell to the ground.

“Absolutely. It has to be. It’s an absolute try scoring scenario. Surely if Olam takes that, he’s pretty much home,” Steve Roach replied.The ball hit the ground and eventually recovered by Penrith, however the Tigers challenged the no call.While the Tigers received a penalty, no sin bin was handed out to Schneider, much to the chagrin of Michael Ennis.“Olam was looming on the inside and Schneider blatantly ankle tapped him. It had to be a sin bin.

A penalty wasn’t given despite Sezer clipping Schneider’s legs just after he kicked a ball downfield. A similar incident resulted in a penalty to the Warriors against the Sea Eagles last week.
