Wests Tigers co-captain James Tamou will miss the opening round of the season against the Melbourne Storm after accepting an early guilty plea for a dangerous conduct charge from the pre-season trial against the Roosters.
Tamou was handed a grade two charge for taking out Sam Walker's legs as he tried to apply kick pressure in the 12th minute of the clash at Central Coast Stadium.
Tamou will be eligible to return to action in Wests Tigers’ Round 2 clash against the Newcastle Knights at McDonald Jones Stadium.
