NRL: The Sunday Ticket team compare Kodi Nikorima's contact on Scott Drinkwater that went unpunished, with Harry Grant's sin binning after contact with Dan Atkinson.

Reaction towards Grant’s sin bin ning has largely been unanimous, with nearly all pundits believing the Storm star was hard done by.

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?Phil Rothfield couldn’t comprehend how both the on-field referee and the Bunker came to the conclusion that Grant should be sin binned. He was later charged over the incident but escaped with a fine.

“It’s been a penalty- all year, and good on them for cracking down, but to send him to the sin bin … I’m a Sharks fan and I felt ordinary about him leaving the field of play. It was absolutely farcical. And for those two guys to stuff it up, what a joke!”Cronk brought up a similar incident from a game between the Cowboys and Dolphins in Round 9 involving Scott Drinkwater and Kodi Nikorima
