⊇Anthony Milford‘s return to the NRL looks likely to be cut short after the halfback was hit with a two game ban for a shot on Broncos fullback Reece Walsh.
Milford hit Walsh on suspicion, with the ball never anywhere near the Brisbane player, leading the judiciary to slap him with two weeks if he takes the Early Guilty Plea.
That leaves Wayne Bennett in serious strife, as his team also lost Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow to a hamstring injury and his replacement at the back, Kodi Nikorima, to a calf issue late in the game.
