Vision has emerged of another breach of the rules by a Panthers trainer, in the moments after the incident involving Corey Bocking and Titans halfback Jayden Campbell.<\/p>\n
Another Panthers trainer, Shane Elford, was seen on the field longer than he should have been in the set of six where Nathan Cleary kicked his two-point field goal to send the game into golden point.<\/p>\n
As a blue shirt trainer, Elford was supposed to have left the field after the fourth tackle. But he was seen on the field after the fifth tackle, as Cleary landed his stunning field goal.<\/p>\n
