Wests Tigers co-captain James Tamou will miss the opening round of the season against Melbourne after taking an early guilty plea to a dangerous conduct charge arising from Friday night's pre-season trial against the Roosters.
Tamou was handed a grade two charge for taking out Sam Walker's legs as he tried to apply kick pressure in the 12th minute of the clash at Central Coast Stadium.
The other player charged out of Friday night was Roosters prop Lindsay Collins, who was playing his first match back after a knee reconstruction.
