LeagueNews.co | Jason Patrick

The latest NRL Round 16 Judiciary Update has ruffled feathers at roosters.com.au as Fetalaiga Pauga and Sam Walker face charges following the Sydney Roosters clash with the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.

Pauga finds himself in hot water after being slapped with a Grade Two Reckless High Tackle Charge following an incident in the 73rd minute - a blow that could see him benched for a significant four matches if he pleads guilty early.

However, if he chooses to protest his innocence and is found guilty at the judiciary, he'll be sidelined for five matches, leaving a gaping hole in the Roosters' line-up.

Meanwhile, young gun Walker is in the firing line after receiving a Grade One Careless High Tackle charge for an incident in the 13th minute.

Opting for an early guilty plea could see him hit with a $1000 fine, a bitter pill to swallow for the rising star.

As the Roosters lick their wounds and prepare for the challenges ahead, fans are left holding their breath, hoping for a successful outcome at the judiciary.

In the fast-paced world of Rugby League, every decision counts - and the Roosters will need to dig deep to overcome this latest setback and emerge victorious.
