Issac Luke facing three-match ban

[tigersrule4life]

South Sydney hooker Issac Luke is facing up to four weeks on the sidelines after he was charged by the NRL match review committee with a Grade 2 Dangerous throw on Tuesday morning.

Luke was charged for his 17th minute tackle on Roosters centre Shaun Kenny-Dowall during the Rabbitohs' dramatic 24-22 victory at Allianz Stadium on Monday night.

The Rabbitohs hooker will serve a three-match ban with an early guilty plea, but would face up to four weeks on the sidelines if he fights the charge at the NRL judiciary and loses.

It is a huge blow to the Rabbitohs with Luke in stellar from for the club this season, leading the team in line-break assists (14), total runs (243), average runs (15.2), offloads (36), is second in total metres gained (1933), tackles (455), tackle-breaks (64) and ranking third at the club in try-assists (7).

South Sydney will have until midday on Wednesday to enter a plea.

The Rabbitohs take on the Dragons in Round 20, Wests Tigers in Round 21, the Titans in Round 22 and the Sea Eagles in Round 23.

We'll win that game now. Luke is very important to them and carves us up at will generally.

Unlikely given his previous record which does include dangerous throws. The guy is a quality player but his discipline is horrid.

Big boost for us if he doesn't play. Grub of a bloke
