When NRL football boss Graham Annesley fronts up for his weekly briefing on Tuesday, Josh McGuire will likely be on the agenda.
The veteran Cowboys forward was cited for the second time this year for an alleged eye-gouge, this time on Manly's Dylan Walker.
Earlier this season, McGuire was pinged for a similiar incident on Maroons teammate Cameron Munster.
Both times, McGuire escaped suspension - but Canberra youngster Hudson Young wasn't so lucky.

Young is midway through a five-week ban for an eye-gouge on Canterbury forward Aiden Tolman.
Meanwhile, McGuire is facing a monster $4500 fine for the Walker incident, but is free to play.
Questions were raised over the consistency of the Young ban even before McGuire's crack at Walker.
With McGuire a repeat offender - with four prior similar offences to his name - questions will be asked of Annesley and how a decision was made on the incident by the match review committee.
Cronulla veteran Paul Gallen was adamant McGuire should have copped a suspension, regardless of repeat offences.
"He should have been suspended. It's a terrible look," the Sharks captain said on 100% Footy.
"An eye-gouge is an eye-gouge. It doesn't matter how bad it is. He got away with the one on Munster and he's got away with it again.
"I can't understand how, one week earlier, we see a guy get suspended for five weeks, possibly facing seven, and [McGuire] gets away with a fine.
"I've got no idea [why he's doing it]... it's twice in 13 rounds. I don't know what the difference is.
"It's a question we have to ask the NRL and the panel that charged him... I don't get it."
Phil Gould went a step further, saying McGuire should have been rubbed out for eight weeks.
"I can't believe it. I cannot believe it," Gould added.
"If they've charged and found him guilty of eye-gouging, but fined? Please. Eight weeks."
