The heartbreak of the Dolphins’ extra-time loss to Penrith will ripple for 2 extra weeks as Kodi Nikorima faces suspension for the sort out that hospitalised Mitch Kenny.
It comes as Canberra’s Hudson Younger receives his personal two-match suspension for the excessive sort out he made on Sua Fa’alogo late within the Raiders’ 26-22 win over Melbourne.
Nikorima is about to overlook video games towards the Warriors and Storm for crunching Kenny in a hip-drop sort out throughout the Dolphins’ 23-22 loss to the ladder-leading Panthers.
If he unsuccessfully challenged his grade-three harmful contact cost — essentially the most critical grading accessible — the Dolphins five-eighth would miss an extra sport towards Canterbury.
The sort out landed Nikorima within the sin bin because the Panthers had been constructing their 18-0 half-time lead, however he returned because the Dolphins stormed again into the competition.
