Josh Papalii charged, facing three-week ban

Raiders back-rower Josh Papalii could miss up to three weeks after he was cited by the NRL match review committee for a grade two shoulder charge.

The Match Review Committee charged Papalii for a grade two shoulder charge following the match against the Dragons on Friday night.

The base penalty for the charge is 262 points. If Papalii accepts the early plea, he will miss two matches. If he contests the charge and loses he faces a three-week suspension.

The Raiders are yet to determine a decision on the charge and will most likely do so Monday.
