Eels gun Shaun Lane believes his side would have conducted themselves different to that of their cross-town rivals — whose premiership celebrations were labelled “tasteless”.
Penrith beat Parramatta 28-12 on Sunday night and since James Fisher-Harris said “Parra are our sons”, Jarome Luai posted a now-deleted Instagram story with a caption that has racial connotations and Apisai Koroisau mocked the Tigers.
NRL 360 co-host Paul Kent said
the Panthers “were really bad winners”
on Tuesday and Lane believes his side would have shown more respect to their opposition if they were able to break a 36-year premiership drought.
