Canterbury captain James Graham has been hit with a high tackle charge from Thursday’s golden point NRL win over Manly but can avoid suspension with an early guilty plea.

The match review committee cited the Bulldogs prop for a grade one high tackle on Sea Eagles counterpart Darcy Lussick in the 41st minute.

Graham, who has two prior non-similar offences, faces a one-game ban but will be free to take on Brisbane next week should he take the early guilty plea.
