Judiciary watch: Su'A learns his fate after high shot
The MRC has handed down its findings from Saturday
rsn.net.auJaydn Su’a received a three-game suspension in April 2026 after a high shot that saw him sent off for St. George Illawarra against South Sydney. He later added an early guilty plea, which confirmed a three-match ban with the possibility of four if the matter were appealed and overturned at judiciary. The suspension ruled him out of Dragons’ fixtures around ANZAC Day plus games against Newcastle and Penrith, affecting the club during a tough period in 2026.
What you can expect next
- If the Dragons choose to fight the charge, they risk a four-match ban if the judiciary rejects the appeal.
- If Su’a’s suspension runs its course, he would be eligible to return for Dragons’ following round after the three-match ban, depending on the official match calendar and any further fresh charges.
