Jared Waerea-Hargreaves faces up to eight weeks on the sideline through suspension after the Sydney Roosters prop is hit with two charges by the match review committee.
abc.net.au/news/nrl-sydney-roosters-jared-waerea-hargreaves-facing-suspension/102781688Jared Waerea-Hargreaves could be facing up to eight weeks on the sideline through suspension after the Sydney Roosters prop was hit with two charges by the match review committee.
Waerea-Hargreaves was handed a grade-two dangerous contact charge for his late shot on Wests Tigers star Api Korisau during the Roosters' 32-8 win on Saturday night. The charge carries a three-match suspension with an early guilty plea, while he risks four weeks on the sideline if he fights the sanction at the judiciary and is unsuccessful.
He faces the same predicament with his grade-one striking offence for headbutting Tigers prop Stefano Utoikamanu in an ensuing brawl. Making the matter even more frustrating for the Roosters, they were already cruising to victory at the time of the incidents.But the 34-year-old's record — which now includes five charges this year — means he will miss a total of six matches with an early plea and eight if found guilty of both offences by the judiciary.
