The NRL Match Review Committee has handed down one charge from Friday night’s Round 23 fixture, with Canberra Raiders enforcer Corey Horsburgh set to spend time on the sidelines.
Horsburgh was cited in the 74th minute for a Shoulder Charge on Warriors forward Jazz Tevaga. The incident was deemed a Grade 1 offence, with the Raiders prop’s prior record ruling out any discount. As it is his second offence, Horsburgh faces a $3,000 fine if he takes the early plea or a two-match suspension if found guilty at the judiciary.
