Meanwhile, Parramatta forward Wiremu Greig will spend two weeks on the sidelines after a high shot in his side's loss to the Roosters.

Richard Kennar successfully downgrades charge at NRL Judiciary
Kennar's season was expected to be over after he was offered a three-game suspension for a high shot on Luke Laulilii in Round 23.
The incident, which saw Kennar sent to the sin-bin, earned him a grade two careless high tackle charge.
However, that charge was downgraded to a grade one at the judiciary, and has seen him fined $3,000 instead.
Kennar was sent to the sin bin following this incident.
