South Sydney fullback Greg Inglis is facing a five-match suspension while eight other players were charged by the NRL match review committee on Monday after a dramatic Round 20 of the NRL Telstra Premiership.
>
Inglis, Penrith’s Travis Burns, Brisbane’s Ben Te’o and Josh Hoffman, St George Illawarra’s Dan Hunt, Josh Miller and Trent Merrin and Canberra’s Josh Papalii are all facing charges from the weekend’s games.
>
Inglis was charged with a grade four dangerous contact – shoulder, for his tackle on Dragons forward Dean Young in the 33rd minute of the Rabbitohs’ 36-14 victory at ANZ Stadium on Saturday night.
>
The charge means Inglis could miss up to five matches, which is a massive blow to South Sydney’s aspirations to finish in the top four.
>
The Queensland and Australia representative will miss four games with an early plea, but could miss up to five matches if he fights the charge at the NRL judiciary and loses.
>
South Sydney may also elect to dispute the grading which could result in a reduced suspension if successful at the NRL judiciary.
>
If Inglis is suspended for an extended period, Nathan Merritt would be the obvious choice to fill the void at fullback for South Sydney, after the try-scoring machine bagged another hat-trick at the weekend. Merritt showed his potential at fullback last season scoring 10 tries in just three games, including an incredible five tries in one match.
>
Penrith Panthers five-eighth Travis Burns is set to miss the rest of the season after he was charged for two separate incidents in his side’s 28-16 victory over the Roosters at Centrebet Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
>
Burns was charged with a grade two dangerous contact – unnessary arm/shoulder pressure for his chicken-wing style tackle on Roosters forward Mose Masoe and was also slapped with a grade three high tackle – intentional, for his tackle on Roosters forward Martin Kennedy.
>
Burns was sent-off for his shot on Kennedy, becoming only the second player this season to be given his marching orders after Dragons forward Matt Prior was sent from the field in Round 9.
>
Burns is facing up to 12 weeks for the high shot on Kennedy and four weeks for the tackle on Masoe.
>
If the Panthers take the early plea to both charges, the five-eighth would be ruled out for a total of 12 matches.
>
Brisbane’s Ben Te’o is facing a week suspension after he was charged with a grade two careless high-tackle on Titans forward Luke Bailey.
>
Teammate Josh Hoffman is facing a two-week suspension for a tackle on Bailey after he was slapped with a grade two dangerous contact charge. The Broncos fullback would however only miss one match with an early plea.
>
Dragons trio Hunt, Merrin and Miller have all been charged with grade one careless high tackles, but will be free to play at the weekend.
>
Canberra’s Josh Papalii was charged with a grade one dangerous contact with a kicker, but will be free to play if he takes the early guilty plea.

“Steve Price’s comments have exacerbated this situation resulting in a high grading for this incident,” Coach Maguire said.
>
“He came out and compared this tackle to one where his player was charged earlier in the year, where he raised his elbow and struck an opposition player square in the face.
>
“To compare these two incidents is ridiculous to say the least, and to do so can only be designed to be inflammatory and to try and prejudice the case before it reaches the match review committee.
>
“We operated within the rules of the NRL. The Dragons didn’t.
>
“It is against the NRL Rules to comment on any matter that is subject to review by the Match Review Committee or the Judiciary, and Steve Price’s comments have incited a media frenzy around this incident.
>
“His comments have exacerbated this situation, and if this isn’t a clear case of trying to prejudice a case against a player then I don’t know what is.
>
“We want to know what the ARLC is going to do about his comments, which were made two days ago, which are clearly against the rules, as it is harmful to the game and reputation of our player and our Club. It’s bad for the game, yet despite several conversations with the ARLC by myself and the CEO since Saturday’s game, nothing has been done about it.
>
“It’s not good enough.”

BooHoo?
I thought you were a stickler for law, protocol and guidelines willow.
Price should keep his mouth shut, he just makes himself look stupid

Burns cops the season and a quarter of next season with early pleas.
You cannot tell me this is the same as it was at the start of the year
The inconsistency is just so frustrating
PC lefty loonies taking over everywhere….its a sad place now

Inglis, as with anyone else connecting with the head will get what he deserves.
I often wonder what some players are thinking, when most of them, including Inglis, could have crouched down 8 inches and given magnificent rib rattlers which would have the effect of stopping that player for the game, but not caused concussions or brain injuries.

I was at the game and saw both the chicken wing and head high,12 weeks for both with the early guilty plea is about right,if he contests,he will lose and miss 17 weeks total for both offences.
