Nathan Cleary free to play after NRL finals sin-binning
Nathan Cleary will not be suspended despite being sin-binned for making contact with the kicking leg of Hugo Savala in Penrith's qualifying final win over the Roosters.
Nathan Cleary has been cleared to play in the NRL preliminary final after a grade-one dangerous contact charge in Penrith's qualifying final win over the Roosters. The star halfback was only fined $1,000 for making contact with the kicking leg of Hugo Savala, allowing him to avoid a ban and play in the upcoming match. Penrith will face either the Warriors or Knights, while the Roosters and Sharks clash this weekend for the chance to meet the Dolphins.
Cleary's foot injury has been a source of concern, but he expects to be fit for the game against the winner of the Warriors and Newcastle showdown.
