Munster avoids ban over conduct

Sports

BRISBANE: Cameron Munster has avoided a ban for sliding his knees into James Tedesco, escaping from State of Origin two without a match review committee charge.
In potentially the only bright piece of news for Queensland after Sunday night’s massacre, the NRL has confirmed no player was charged out of the clash.
That means Munster will be free to play for Melbourne tomorrow against the Sydney Roosters, after staring down the barrel of his third incident in four games.
Even the most minor of charges would have resulted in a ban for the Storm star after he chased through on a Ben Hunt kick and collided with Tedesco.
Munster was handed a contrary conduct charge for kicking Liam Martin in Origin one, before copping the same charge days later for the Storm against the Warriors.
He was fined A$1,150 (K3,000) for the first incident and A$1,700 (K4,453) for the second. – 7 News
