The NRL Grand Final has left fans reeling after a series of questionable calls sparked outrage among viewers, with one prominent commentator singled out for their scathing criticism of the NRLs Bunker technology.
Prominent AFL commentator Kane Cornes has come under fire for his "idiot" take on the NRL Grand Final, in which he fired shots at the use of bunker technology during the match between the Penrith Panthers and the Parramatta Eels.
However, the NRL has moved swiftly to defend the integrity of its contested Bunker call, releasing footage from a secret meeting between officials that proves the call was correct. In the meeting, senior officials are shown explaining the rulebook and how the decision was made in accordance with the rules.
Watch the footage for yourself at the official NRL website, but be warned, it makes for some uncomfortable viewing for Cornes. NRL officials are in the firing line after a contentious Bunkercall proved pivotal in costing the Melbourne Storm the championship.
The Penrith Panthers ultimately took home the title in a thrilling Grand Final showdown, but questions remain about the legitimacy of the outcome.
Storm players and officials are still reeling from the decision, which is widely regarded as one of the most egregious controversies to erupt in the NRL Grand Final.
As fans vent their frustration on social media, officials are scrambling to clean up the fallout from the disputed call, with some calling for greater transparency regarding the decision-making process behind Bunker calls.
NRL bosses claim they are taking concrete steps to address concerns and improve the technology, but critics argue more needs to be done to restore trust between fans and officials.
