Parramatta Eels<\/a> forward Jack Williams<\/a> is facing a financial penalty after being charged by the Match Review Committee following Saturday night’s win over the Sydney Roosters<\/a> in round three of the Witzer Pre-Season Challenge. <\/p>\n Williams was cited for a careless high tackle on Roosters winger Tommy Talau<\/a> in the 20th minute of the clash at Gosford.<\/p>\n The incident has been graded as a Grade 1 offence.\u00a0<\/p>\n Under the NRL’s judiciary code, the charge carries a $1000 fine with an early guilty plea.<\/p>\n Should Williams opt to challenge the charge at the judiciary and be unsuccessful, the fine would increase to $1500.<\/p>\n The Eels forward is not facing suspension, meaning he remains available for selection againnst the Melbourne Storm<\/a> in round one, but the club must decide whether to accept the early plea or contest the grading in a bid to have the penalty reduced or overturned.<\/p>\n Parramatta’s victory over the Roosters was a strong statement performance, though Williams’ charge adds a minor post-match complication as the Eels prepare for the week ahead.<\/p>\n Get set for the footy with the FREE Zero Tackle 2026 NRL Season Guide!<\/a> Packed with 130+ pages of player profiles, team previews, insights and analysis, the 2026 NRL Season Guide<\/a> is built for fans who want the full picture.
