Horsburgh learns fate after charges revealed, while Raiders sweat on Sasagi
Corey Horsburgh avoided serious penalties; Simi Sasagi suffered a shoulder injury and missed the next match after Canberra's loss.
The Canberra Times
Canberra Raiders forward Corey Horsburgh can breathe a sigh of relief, but the same cannot be said for Simi Sasagi.
The NRL match review committee charges dropped on Monday morning after the Raiders' 30-18 defeat to the Panthers.
Horsburgh was twice put on report for tackles, one on Moses Leota in the 20th minute and again late in the game on Dylan Edwards.
But the MRC only charged Horsburgh for the first incident, with the careless high tackle earning him an $1800 fine with an early plea.
