Penalty count controversy: Stuart's frustrations spill over

‘Ask anyone’: Stuart vents over penalty count

LeagueNews.co | Jason Patrick

Raiders coach Ricky Stuart once again voiced his frustration over a lopsided penalty count in his team's win against Cronulla, questioning why they received seven penalties to Cronulla's two.

Stuart made it clear he was not criticizing referee Todd Smith, whom he described as "wonderful," but he expressed his confusion over the penalty discrepancy.

NRL HQ has been cracking down on coaches' comments about referees, but Stuart has previously spoken out about similar situations, hoping for answers from NRL chief executive Andrew Abdo.

Despite facing challenges like back-rower Hudson Young's sin-binning, Stuart praised his players for overcoming obstacles to secure victory in the match.
