Wayne Bennett has asked the NRL to look at the Panthers illegally blocking the Rabbitohs kick pressure.

Bennett says it happened last time the Rabbitohs met the Panthers & occurred 3 times in the 2nd half without penalty. Bennett said that he has heard the Panthers train & practice this blocking tactic but he expects the Panthers to be penalised accordingly if & when it occurs again.

Bennett said that the Panthers run blocks & they run them on a consistent basis & asked that both teams be officiated fairly.

Wayne also said that the Rabbitohs will be 1-17 & Blake Taaffe will be playing fullback.
