Canberra Raiders NRL News

The Canberra Times

The Canberra Raiders will take on the Melbourne Storm without one of their most dangerous playmakers.

Sebastian Kris played at centre in Canberra's 22-18 win over the Tigers and scored two tries, but a little over 10 minutes into the second half he left the field with a hamstring complaint.

Scans on Monday revealed Kris suffered a hamstring strain and has been ruled out for three to four weeks, rubbing him from the upcoming Storm, Bulldogs and Broncos matches, and possibly the final round clash against the Sharks.

The official website of the Canberra Raiders, raiders.com.au, has reported that Jack Wighton, a player for the team, has been charged by the NRL Match Review Committee in relation to their recent victory against the Wests Tigers.

The charge against Wighton is for contrary conduct, specifically stemming from an incident that occurred during the 80th minute of the game.

If Wighton decides to take the early guilty plea, he will be subjected to a $3,000 fine.

However, should he choose to contest the charge and subsequently lose, he will be suspended for two matches.
