League: Warrior charged over hit

Warriors wing Michael Crockett was yesterday charged with a grade two reckless high tackle after his bone-jarring hit on the Bulldogs' Cameron Phelps on Sunday.

Phelps is back in Sydney and revealed he had been left so ill by the knock that he was vomiting until 5am yesterday. "I've never felt that bad in my life. I've been knocked out a few times but I've never felt like that ... I was just vomiting non-stop."

Crockett will be suspended for two matches if he pleads guilty to the charge, or three if he contests the charge and loses. The Warriors, who lost 40-20 to the Bulldogs, have until today to decide whether to contest the charge.
