In the latest NRL Judiciary news out of the Roosters camp, Joseph Manu finds himself in hot water following the Round 22 clash against the Dolphins.
After being sin-binned in the 70th minute during the hard-fought victory, Manu has been cited for a Grade 1 Careless High Tackle by the Match Review Committee.
The Kiwi international now faces a crucial decision ahead of him.
If he opts for an early guilty plea, he'll cop a $1000 fine.
However, if he decides to fight the charge and is found guilty at the judiciary, the fine will increase to $1500.
Manu's fate hangs in the balance as he ponders his next move.
He has until Sunday at 12pm to weigh his options and make a decision that could impact his wallet and, potentially, his playing time in the upcoming fixtures.
It's a tough call for the talented centre, but in the game of Rugby League, sometimes you have to take the hits and keep moving forward.
