NRL head of football Graham Annesley has delivered an incredible explanation for a contentious and pivotal try that helped the Dolphins defeat the Canberra Raiders in round two.
At his weekly briefing in Sydney, Annesley remarkably found fault with Raiders centre Matt Timoko, not Dolphins second-rower Tom Gilbert, in the game-levelling try that left commentators stunned on Saturday.
Gilbert's 62nd minute score erased the Raiders' lead and brought scores to 12-12 in a game where points were difficult to come by in slippery conditions up north.
