Be interesting to see if NRL judiciary charge Lillyman with what looks to be a deliberate throwing of a punch at Dallas Johnson around the 8 minute 30 second mark in the first half.

Dallas on the 5th tackle is trying to get over the line and being held and stopped by 4 Cowboys.

Lillyman comes in from the side and with trying to tackle throws a bunch directed at Dallas's head. The only thing that stopped it connecting was the cowboys continuing the tackle and moving Johnson out of the way.

If it connected,then yes,it would definitly.

Sounds like it could be one in the grey area that will come down to interpretation by the review panel.

I think you'll find that he deliberately punched his arm. (to cork it maybe). Low act imo.

Also Slater Did what I'd call was a blatant grapple to stop a try.

Interesting times ahead.

Have just found out that it was Faumuina (not sure why the 5/8 was wearing number 11, but there you go) and not Lillyman, sorry about that.

I don't recall the incident, but Faumuina should have been rubbed out from the Newcastle game anyway, so see if he gets away with another one by the sounds of it
Storming our way to glory!
