Rabbitohs star Latrell Mitchell and Wests Tigers five-eighth Josh Reynolds are both facing potential three-match bans over incidents in Friday night’s clash between the teams.
Mitchell is facing a grade two striking charge for a hit on Reynolds after Reynolds made contact with Campbell Graham’s head with his boot, which has resulted in a grade two dangerous contact charge for the Tigers player.
Both players will miss two matches with early guilty pleas and risk three-match suspensions if they unsuccessfully fight the charges at the judiciary.
South Sydney’s Mark Nicholls is also facing a two-match ban with an early plea for a grade two dangerous contact charge from a tackle on Josh Aloiai.
Mitchell placed on report for high tackle
Mitchell is facing a fine for a separate careless high tackle charge on Luke Garner, while Warriors utility Peta Hiku has been charged with tripping Titans player Bryce Cartwright and is also facing a fine.
