Bulldogs forward Luke Thompson has been referred straight to the judiciary after being charged with eye gouging.
The Englishman is charged with allegedly making contact with the eyes of Panthers prop James Tamou during Saturday's match at ANZ Stadium.
Tamou made the complaint to referee Henry Perenera during the match and the match review committee have since decided he has a case to answer.
Thompson and the Bulldogs will now plead their case on Tuesday night.
