Round 25 of the NRL season kicked into gear on Friday night with two entertaining matches, which left the Match Review Committee with four charges to sort through.
At GIO Stadium, the Brisbane Broncos defeated the Raiders 34-40 in Canberra's final home game of the season.
It wasn't all smooth sailing for the Broncos, with lock Patrick Carrigan sent to the sin bin in the 24th minute for a careless high tackle on Canberra Raiders forward Corey Horsburgh.
The Match Review Committee handed Carrigan a Grade 1 charge, his second offence in the past three years.
The Broncos forward was given a $1,800 fine with an early guilty plea, which can increase to $2,500 if he contests it and loses at a judiciary hearing.
Across at Suncorp Stadium, the Dolphins put on a much more comfortable display, winning 34-16 over the Parramatta Eels.
The match produced three separate charges.
First, Will Penisini from the Eels was charged with a Grade 1 careless high tackle on Dolphins centre, Herbie Farnworth.
Penisini caught Farnworth high in an attacking shift from the Dolphins at the end of the set in the 12th minute of the game.
Since it's his first offence, Penisini is fined $1,000 with an early plea, $1,500 with an unsuccessful contest.
Two Dolphins players headline the four players charged as the side hopes to keep its spot in the top four.
Jack Bostock picked up a Grade 1 dangerous throw charge for an incident involving Eels backline talent Apa Twidle in the 18th minute.
It's also Bostock's first offence, with the same fine as Penisini.
Tom Flegler was also cited for a Grade 1 dangerous contact charge on Eels forward Jack Williams in the 73rd minute of the match.
This is also Flegler's first offence, and it carries the same fine as his teammate's.
None of the four charges carries a suspension risk, which is huge for the Dolphins to finish their season strong and make their way to the finals without any significant players missing time due to suspension.
