Penrith coach in tunnel exchange with ref

[Raidercast]

Penrith skipper James Tamou and coach Ivan Cleary approached NRL referee Ashley Klein in the tunnel at halftime of their side's 30-18 loss to the Raiders at Penrith Stadium on Sunday.

The clash was sparked after star James Maloney, who fills in as captain when Tamou comes off the field, menaced Klein in the first half and confronted the referee after both sides came together before halftime, and was warned to calm down.

“You as captain are not setting a very good example,” Klein told Maloney.
