Pettybourne hit hard by judiciary

Rabbitohs forward Eddy Pettybourne could miss up to a month of football after he was charged with a Grade 2 dangerous throw by the match review committee.

Pettybourne will miss three weeks if he takes the early guilty plea, but would risk missing four if he contests the charge and loses.

The incident happened in the second minute of the Rabbitohs-Eels clash.

The news isn’t any better for Parramatta, with cult figure Fuifui Moimoi facing a week on the sidelines for his high shot on Ben Ross.

Roosters forward Mitchell Aubusson was charged with a dangerous throw, but won’t miss the weekend’s game if he takes the early guilty plea.
