Cayless out for three months
Nathan Cayless has copped a two month suspension after pleading guilty to both a careless tackle and a striking charge, but will miss those games anyway after being diagnosed with a broken arm that should keep him off the park for three months.
An AAP report also said that Cayless was one of the player's under criticism from the review co-ordinator Greg McCallum for his constant pressuring of referee Jason Robinson.
"Players should be under no illusions that we take a very dim view of any player who attempts to intimidate referees during matches," McCallum reportedly said.
Brian Smith told AAP that Cayless has taken his forced stint on the sideline hard.
"There's no more dedicated player in the game and no player who cares more about the team and club."
