Victor Radley is free to play in the grand final after receiving a $3,000 fine for his hip-drop tackle on Herbie Farnworth.
Connor Watson's availability is less certain after he was diagnosed with a Category 1 concussion during the Roosters' 36-20 preliminary-final win over the Dolphins on Friday night.
Watson had been on the field for about a minute when he was concussed. An independent doctor initially classified the incident as Category 2, then upgraded it to Category 1 after a few minutes.
NRL rules require an 11-day stand-down for a Category 1 concussion, while the grand final is only nine days after the preliminary final.
Clubs can seek an exemption by showing a player was not as badly concussed as first believed. Usually, the player must show no concussion symptoms the day after the incident.
Manly's Tolu Koula received an exemption after State of Origin 1, missing one Sea Eagles match instead of two. The Broncos also secured an exemption for Xavier Willison this year.
Coach Trent Robinson said Watson was undergoing more tests than a standard head injury assessment. "That was a hard one; he came out as a Category 2, they changed it to a 1 after a couple of minutes," Robinson said.
He added: "That's still 'watch this space' on Connor. It depends on how his tests go (if the Roosters appeal), so we'll see how that goes."
Fox Sports sideline reporter Jake Duke said Roosters officials were "not happy" with the upgrade and had "already signalled their intention to challenge it".
