Eel, Warrior facing suspensions as….. escapes

The match review committee have handed down four charges.

Parramatta Eels forward Kelma Tuilagi is facing a four-match suspension for a dangerous throw, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak will miss a match for a high shot, and the Sydney Roosters have two forwards facing fines.

 

The NRL’s match review committee handed down four charges on Sunday morning from Saturday’s triple-header, with the Parramatta second-rower facing the longest ban of the quartet.

 

The edge forward, whose side would concede two tries while he was in the sin bin for the tackle, was responsible for a dangerous throw on Lindsay Collins early on in Saturday’s final contest.

“He lifts him up, takes him to ground with moderate force and a risk of injury, so he is in the bin,” referee Chris Butler said in sin binning him.

 

Tuilagi has been hit with a Grade 3 dangerous throw charge by the MRC, and will face four weeks with an early guilty plea, or five if he heads to the judiciary and loses.
