Phil Wing was there a few times last season, and still has a role with the Phantoms don't he? Also he is probably still a Panthers fan, so to have the Panthers still running is in his interest. Hence the devils advocate role last night, asking questions.
Don't believe any comments last night was 'rubbish', yes some wasn't probably right with the evening, BUT its all true. Thought they answered the questions well, and they certainly have the help from the people who turned up last night, so bring on the challenge.
