Heighington to miss a week

[Guest]

Excellent news, he's been in good form this season and will be sorely needed against the Broncos pack.

Very surprising but great news If teams line up as programmed we are a big chance folks

 

[Geo]

So there's a chance that he may play ????

Is there precedence??

Each charge is taken on it's merits…..how they came up with grade 2 in the first place is beyond me so lets hope he gets downgraded and is free to take his place....

We cant afford to have fit blokes sitting on the sideline.... :rant

I'll be surprised if they downgrade the charge it is still careless and grade 2 is about right . Unfortunately we have to take off the black gold and white sunglasses sometimes…..

:smiley: :sunglasses:

so does this mean a reshuffle to the side named Id love to see four forwards on the bench.

Well done on contesting the Grade here.

Heighington avoids ban at judiciary
April 21, 2011 - 12:00AM

Wests Tigers forward Chris Heighington has succeeded in having his grade two careless high tackle charge downgraded at the NRL Judiciary.

Heighington is free to play against Brisbane at the Sydney Football Stadium on Friday night after he avoided a one-match ban.

The hard-working second rower was the first player to appear before the judiciary in 2011, as he challenged the grading of his high shot on Gold Coast's Greg Bird from last Friday night.

Heighington's availability for the Broncos clash is a big boost to the Tigers, who also welcome back stars Keith Galloway, Liam Fulton and Beau Ryan from injury.
