Warriors new recruit Ruben Wiki faces a stint on the NRL sidelines just two matches into his homecoming season - and the possibility of missing next month's Anzac test.
The veteran Kiwis forward was yesterday charged with a grade three careless high tackle after an incident late in his new side's 24-12 upset win over the Brisbane Broncos on Saturday night.
Wiki will cop a three-match ban should he lodge an early guilty plea before tomorrow's hearing
Meanwhile, Manly centre John Hopoate will have to front the judiciary after being charged with striking following his tackle which floored Cronulla teenager Keith Galloway and left him concussed in their NRL match on Sunday.
Hopoate was sent off after rushing off the defensive line and hitting Galloway in the head with his forearm in a leaping tackle.
