Manly forward Addin Fonua-Blake has received a one-match NRL ban for a high shot on Melbourne star Cooper Cronk.
Fonua-Blake will miss Sunday’s clash with the Sydney Roosters if he pleads guilty to a careless high tackle charge, but will risk a two-match ban if he contests it.
Fonua-Blake felled Cronk with the tackle in the first half of the Storm’s 40-6 win in Melbourne on Sunday.
The bench prop’s absence would be a blow to a seventh-placed Sea Eagles side aiming to avoid their third-straight loss.
Meanwhile, Gold Coast forward Joe Greenwood has been fined $1500 for a careless high tackle on fullback James Tedesco during Sunday’s loss to Wests Tigers.
Greenwood will be free to play in the Titans’ home game against Brisbane on Saturday.
