South Sydney star Latrell Mitchell is facing a fine of up to $2500 from the NRL after he was charged for the collision that left his close friend Josh Addo-Carr with a sickening concussion. Mitchell was on Saturday hit with a grade-one dangerous contact charge by the match review committee, after his hip collected Addo-Carr in South Sydney’s 20-16 Good Friday win.
Mitchell collision sours win over Bulldogs. Rushing across to make a cover tackle, the South Sydney fullback collided with the Canterbury winger as he went over the sideline just before halftime. Addo-Carr fell face first onto the ground as Mitchell attempted to hold up the Bulldogs winger and support him. Referee Gerard Sutton could be heard saying to the bunker it appeared “incidental”, but on Saturday the match review committee deemed the challenge dangerous and worthy of a charge.
