Round 14 charges: Napa, Proctor, Bromwich among banned stars

Titans back-rower Kevin Proctor, Storm prop Jesse Bromwich and Dragons forward Tyrell Fuimaono were all found guilty and suspended at the NRL judiciary on Tuesday night.

Proctor was found guilty of a dangerous conduct (biting) charge and suspended for four matches, while Bromwich copped a one-match ban for a grade one dangerous contact charge.

Fuimaono pleaded guilty but was unsuccessful in seeking a downgrade for a dangerous contact charge and will miss two matches.

Bulldogs prop Dylan Napa will miss his side's clash with the Warriors after entering an early guilty plea to a dangerous contact charge.

Napa was cited after being adjudged to have led with his head while attempting to make a tackle on Wests Tigers forward Sam McIntyre.

Due to the loading that comes with a similar offence within the last two years, Napa was facing a one-week ban irrespective of whether he entered an early guilty plea or went to the judiciary and lost.

Four men who didn't appear before the judiciary are Liam Knight, Payne Haas, Eliesa Katoa and Jake Granville.

All entered early guilty pleas. Haas will miss two matches while Knight and Katoa will both miss one. Granville avoids suspension but will have 75 carry-over points against his name.

Napa placed on report for leading with head

Bromwich was charged by the match review committee for an incident involving Matt Ikuvalu in the 25th minute of Thursday night's win over the Roosters. He is accused of a "hip drop" tackle on the Roosters winger.

NRL head of football Graham Annesley recently warned players about this practice of dropping their body weight onto the unprotected back legs of ball carriers to finish a tackle.

Proctor sent off after alleged bite on Johnson

If unsuccessful, Bromwich will miss Thursday's clash with Parramatta.

Proctor was referred straight to the judiciary after being sent off for allegedly biting Shaun Johnson in Saturday's loss to Cronulla.

The Titans announced on Monday that Proctor would plead not guilty.

The lawyer representing Proctor said on Tuesday that his Kiwi teammate Johnson would give evidence at the judiciary.
