Canberra's bad luck has continued with Corey Horsburgh found guilty of a shoulder charge and suspended four matches.
On the same day Josh Papalii underwent surgery for a season-ending biceps injury, Horsburgh made the trek to League Central to defend himself against a brutal shot on Brisbane's Corey Jensen.
The shoulder charge came in the 79th minute during Canberra's 29-18 loss on Saturday night.
Horsburgh was facing a three-match ban, but would have been free to play against Cronulla on Sunday if found not guilty.
