Storm set to be fined for fielding 14 players during win over Roosters – Sydney Morning Herald
It was only for a few seconds but the Storm did field 14 players against the Roosters on Thursday night.
That’s when Vunivalu, who had been replaced by Nicho Hynes, rushed back onto the field and turned a two-on-one situation back into a two-on-two.
Brenko Lee then tackled Josh Morris, bringing an end to any hope the Roosters had of scoring a long range try.
Melbourne had a 24-0 lead at the time but Vunivalu undoubtedly impacted play.
The result will likely be a fine for the Storm. An NRL source insisted the stripping of premiership points is not a possibility.
