Issac Luke will miss three matches after his unsuccessful challenge of a dangerous tackle charge at the judiciary on Tuesday night.
Luke will be sidelined for Friday's critical clash with Canberra, as well as round 21 and 22 games against Manly and the Roosters with an extra week's suspension added to his punishment for lifting Parramatta's Dylan Brown.
Issac Luke on report for a dangerous tackle
Raiders back-rower Elliott Whitehead successfully appealed his contrary conduct charge over an incident involving Panthers halfback Nathan Cleary.
Whitehead had been facing a $1500 fine if found guilty.
After beating a charge at the judiciary following his side's round 17 loss to the Cowboys, Sydney Roosters prop Jared Waerea-Hargreaves has pleaded guilty to a dangerous contacted charge on Bulldogs half Jack Cogger and will miss one match.
Earlier this season, Waerea-Hargreaves missed two matches through suspension after being found guilty of a dangerous tackle on Knights fullback Kalyn Ponga.
Waera-Hargrecaves charged by the judiciary
Bulldogs prop Dylan Napa has avoided suspension after pleading guilty to a dangerous contact charge on Roosters lock Victor Radley.
Broncos lock Tevita Pangai jnr has accepted a one-match ban for his hit on Titans winger Phillip Sami on Saturday night.
It means Pangai will miss the Broncos’ blockbuster with the Storm at Suncorp Stadium on Friday night, but ensures he will not incur a two-week suspension.
Tevita Pangai charged
Pangai was sin-binned for the contact on Sami - the Broncos, in their statement announcing he would submit an early guilty plea, believe the Gold Coast speedster "ducked into the tackle after catching a bomb".
In some good news for the Sea Eagles, lock Jake Trbojevic has escaped suspension with an early plea to a grade one dangerous throw charge for his tackle on Storm fullback Jahrome Hughes.
