Rugby league legend Paul Gallen has branded the NRL "scared" following the referee's decision to send off Sharks fullback Will Kennedy in the clash with the Warriors on Sunday.


Cronulla carved out a famous victory over the New Zealand outfit at Shark Park, salvaging a 29-10 win despite being one man down from the 17th minute and two men down for 10 minutes during the second half.


The send-off of Kennedy on the back of a 'coat-hanger' tackle on Warriors speedster Reece Walsh led to Gallen, rugby league guru Phil Gould and many others slamming the decision.
