First of all, well done Panthers. Fantastic play and a powerful performance. You deserved to put 20 on us today. The issue I'm raising is not meant to take anything away from a comprehensive victory on the road.
Clinton Toopi was sin binned in the 35th minute for giving the ref an earful. Fair enough. I thought he deserved to go. I thought that Clark's warning to him at the conference was clear and fair, and Toopi was the author of his own temporary demise.
However, I also thought that Priddis deserved to go at various stages during the match, and was never cautioned. At one stage, he stood in the face of Clark and berated him over a decision. Also, for the final five minutes of the first stanza, the Panthers intentionally conceded penalties with regularity and I thought a yellow card could have been warranted in those instance as well.
So what do you think?
There was plenty of niggle, but I thought the Panthers were just as responsible for this as the Warriors were.
