Cowboys hooker Reece Robson has been charged by the match review committee for a high shot which sent him to the sin bin on Friday night but it was not deemed worthy of a ban.
The NSW representative was slapped with a grade-one careless high tackle for the hit on Panthers fullback Daine Laurie but is free to play next weekend.
He has been fined $1000 while Panthers prop Moses Leota is also facing a monetary punishment only after he was charged for a crusher tackle on opposing forward Sam McIntyre.
enrith had the better chances, had an extra man advantage in a crucial window before half-time when Reece Robson was sin-binned, and faced a Cowboys side who lost their first three games of the year and co-captain Reuben Cotter to illness on game day.
But the usually machine-like Panthers were clunky in attack and struggled to contain a humming North Queensland left edge in their second match at their adoptive home.
Robson clipped Laurie on the chin as the fullback fell into a tackle in the 25th minute at CommBank Stadium and after referee Peter Gough delayed play so the Bunker could check the incident, he was sent on his way.
“I can’t disagree with that but I thought there were a couple that we should have got as well,” Cowboys coach Todd Payten bemoaned. “Just looking for consistency.”
Izack Tago, who was sin-binned late in the piece for minor high contact on Murray Taulagi, was not charged.
Raiders duo Seb Kris and Hudson Young, along with Sharks forward Billy Burns were pinged for high tackles from Thursday night’s game but are only facing fines.
