Wests Tigers face more trouble with Doueihi and Fainu suspended, jeopardizing their finals hopes after a recent defeat.
Things have gone from bad to worse for the Wests Tigers with Adam Doueihi and Latu Fainu facing bans, while Alex Twal was hit with a fine after an uncharacteristic moment of madness during Saturday's loss to the Bulldogs.
Fainu is facing a two-match suspension for a grade three dangerous contact charge, while the Tigers look set to be without their halfback for next week's game in Canberra after Doueihi was offered a one-game ban for a high shot on Harry Hayes.
Both players risk an additional week if they fight the charges and lose at the judiciary.
The bans have all but ended their hopes of making the finals for the first time since 2011, with the club on a five-game losing streak after the Bulldogs defeat where they failed to score a point in Jarome Luai's first game since he signed with the Eels.
They looked completely out of sorts, with the emotional toll of the past few weeks leading to some poor discipline from their senior players.
