Apisai Koroisau faces a lengthy suspension after his fourth offence this season, impacting his team's competitive momentum.
When you think about repeat on-field offenders in the NRL, Apisai Koroisau's name is not one that rockets to the top of the list.
But in eight rounds of 2026, he now has four offences on his record and will be walking a tightrope for the remainder of the season.
He paid the price as well during Thursday night's clash against the Canberra Raiders. The Tigers might have won, but his hip drop tackle was judged to be of a Grade 2 nature by the NRL's match review committee, and he is now facing a number of weeks on the sideline.
The former New South Wales representative has been in superb form for the Tigers as they have rocketted towards the top of the competition, but the joint-venture will now need to find a way to retain their form without him.
