In a post-match review, Olivia Kernick of the Sydney Roosters has been cited by the Match Review Committee following their Round 7 game against the Parramatta Eels.
According to a report on roosters.com.au titled "NRLW Judiciary Update: Kernick Enters Plea," Kernick has been charged with a Grade One Careless High Tackle for an incident that took place in the 51st minute of the match.
The nature of the tackle and its timing led to the citation, as the committee deemed it to be a careless act.
Kernick now faces the judiciary process, where she will have the opportunity to enter a plea in response to the charge.
The judiciary will review the evidence and hear arguments from both sides before making a final decision on the matter.
The outcome of this process will determine the potential consequences for Kernick, including any suspension or penalty that may be imposed.
This citation highlights the ongoing importance of player safety and the league's commitment to enforcing the rules and regulations surrounding dangerous tackles.
The NRLW Judiciary Update serves as a reminder to all players to be mindful of their actions on the field and to adhere to the guidelines set forth by the league.
