A kick to the head, a late swinging arm and a lazy tackle have the Tigers' Josh Reynolds and Souths' Latrell Mitchell anxiously awaiting the match review committee's findings.
South Sydney are waiting on likely charges for Latrell Mitchell after two separate incidents in Friday's NRL win over the Wests Tigers, who also await a possible charge for Josh Reynolds.Mitchell responded with a high shot from behind that went unpunished by the on-field refereeMitchell became entangled with Reynolds just six minutes into the game after the Tigers five-eighth kicked Souths centre Campbell Graham in the head while chasing a loose ball.
He was later put on report for a high shot on Tigers forward Josh Aloiai, doubling down on his chances of missing game time in coming weeks.At half-time on Fox Sports, former Roosters, Bulldogs and Tigers star Braith Anasta said Mitchell was lucky to stay on the field for the hit on Reynolds, and four-time premiership winner Cooper Cronk said he expected both players to be banned.
"I'm not too sure what the process will be for him," Souths skipper Adam Reynolds said after the game."Hopefully he'll be there next week, but if not, we've got some quality young kids who are waiting to get their chance.His coach Wayne Bennett said he saw the kick from Reynolds but missed the shot from Mitchell."I was looking at that so I didn't take a lot of notice what happened after that.
