Canberra Raiders seek replacement for suspended Josh Papali'i in front-row for Roosters match.
The Canberra Raiders will look to fill a starting spot in the front row for this weekend's blockbuster clash with the Sydney Roosters after Josh Papali'i was suspended for one match.
Papali'i was cited - and sin-binned - for a hip-drop tackle on Bulldogs star Viliame Kikau in Canberra's Magic Round victory in Brisbane on Friday.
Rather than risk a two-game ban by fighting the charge at the judiciary, NRL head of football Graham Annesley confirmed Papali'i had chosen to accept one week out.
