Fox League’s Andrew Voss mentioned that whereas the correct name had finally been made, it shouldn’t have been a call that may very well be overturned.
“Well this is where I don’t think the Bunker can make a call,” Voss mentioned.
“If the referee hasn’t called held, I don’t think the Bunker can overturn the on field referee.
“It’s referee Adam Gee’s job to call held.”

The no-try name resulted in a 12 level turnaround because the Dragons marched down the sector and scored two units later to bridge the hole to eight factors.
“Massive swing. Dragons starring down a 26-6 scoreline and it’s now 20-12,” Greg Alexander mentioned.
“They make the most of the luck that’s come their way.”
