Judiciary Report: Round 18
Wests Tigers prop Thomas Mikaele has been charged with a Grade 1 High Tackle offence on Broncos forward Rhys Kennedy in Sunday afternoon's Round 18 clash.
Mikaele will escape suspension and be eligible to face Manly Warringah on Saturday after being hit with a $1,150 fine.
Cronulla forward Aiden Tolman is set to miss Round 19 after he was cited for a high tackle in his side's loss to Canberra in Round 18.
Unless the charge is successfully overturned at the judiciary, Tolman will miss his side's upcoming clash against the Bulldogs after he was one of a handful of players charged from the weekend's action — all of which took place in Queensland following the relocation of all teams due to the growing COVID outbreak.
Canterbury-Bankstown halfback Lachlan Lewis has escaped suspension for his brain-snap reaction to South Sydney's Cody Walker on Sunday night.
Cowboys forward Shane Wright, Melbourne utility Chris Lewis, Penrith hooker Api Koroisau, Bulldogs prop Dylan Napa, as well as Titans duo Kevin Proctor and Patrick Herbert have also been charged following their matches over the weekend but are free to play next week with only monetary fines.
