The Wests Tigers are taking a strong stance against the severity of the Grade 3 Careless High Tackle charge slapped on Justin Olam after his send-off in Friday's showdown with the Cowboys.
Olam's controversial high tackle on Heilum Luki saw him receive his marching orders and ignited a firestorm of controversy.
The high-stakes charge against Olam, labeled as a Grade 3 Careless High Tackle, comes with a hefty punishment.
The Tigers have pleaded guilty while pushing for a downgrade, arguing that the punishment is over the top.
The team is not backing down without a fight, ready to tackle this issue head-on.
