I was thinking the same thing. “Panthers can’t cry foul now”
Have you met Panthers fans?
That’s what the bunker’s thinking. Panthers fans will complain regardless

Hughes having a stinker
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

But he looks so focused remember. Never seen him look so focused 🙄

Ironically for panthers fans blowing up about refereeing, the only real howler of the night was in their favour and gave them a sympathy try

Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

69th min TRY PANTHERS to Stephen Crichton. Cleary converts. The Panthers don't deserve to be this close, certainly their first try was a "no try".

Storm 26-12

73rd min TRY PANTHERS to Josh Mansour. This could well be a Grand Final decided by the bunker. No conversion.
