Bulldogs captain James Graham has been charged with a careless high tackle from his team's golden point win over Manly in Round 23 of the NRL Telstra Premiership.

Graham was charged over a tackle on Darcy Lussick in the 41st minute. 

Despite two non-similar prior offences in the past two years Graham can avoid a suspension with an early guilty plea, although he would be hit with 78 carryover points which would put him at risk of a suspension if he faces any further charges this season.
