Bunker backed

-

In a swipe at rival Michael Maguire, Wayne Bennett wants critics to stop their ‘‘ridiculous’’ whining and accept that the NRL bunker will never be perfect. Livid South Sydney coach Maguire demanded answers from the NRL after referees boss Tony Archer admitted Brisbane centre Tautau Moga’s try in the Broncos’ controvers­ial one-point last round win over the Rabbitohs should not have been awarded. Bennett backed the multi-million dollar bunker system, despite claiming another mistake would be made this round. ‘‘It will happen to someone else next week,’’ he said. ‘‘But the technology is there, they do a great job and it’s much improved this year.’’
