Koroisau's plea accepted, one-game suspension in 2025

The timing of Koroisau's suspension has been locked in after he accepted a plea deal, which will see him miss at most one NRL match in 2025.

The Wests Tigers captain was slapped with a Grade 2 offence following the Tigers' unfortunate loss to the Parramatta Eels at Campbelltown, sealing their fate with a third consecutive wooden spoon.

Given Koroisau's track record at the judiciary this season, the charge incurred a three-game suspension, but with his early guilty plea, he will now sit out only two of those games during the upcoming Pacific Bowl tournament.

As a seasoned player on the Fijian roster, his absence will surely be felt as the Bati take on Papua New Guinea and the Cook Islands without him.

To add salt to the wound, the matches will be held in Fiji this year, a setting Koroisau would have relished had it not been for the dangerous throw suspension.

But as they say in Rugby League, it's all part of the game, and players must face the consequences of their actions on and off the field.
