Maroons playmaker Cameron Munster in strife after dangerous collision leading with his knees

Maroons playmaker Cameron Munster for the third time this year will face scrutiny from the NRL’s match review committee following a dangerous collision during Queensland’s Game Two loss to NSW.

Munster was placed on report after he appeared to lead with his knees on a kick-chase before making contact to the head and neck area of Blues fullback James Tedesco.

The incident occurred after Maroons utility Ben Hunt put in a grubber, with Tedesco getting to the ball first as Munster struggled to slow down in time, before his knees came flying in.

The concern for Munster is he’s now had two grade one dangerous contact charges, both of which resulted in fines.

Munster was fined for kicking Blues back-rower Liam Martin during the series opener earlier this month.

Then, just days after that incident, while playing for the Storm at club level, Munster copped another fine for a kicking incident when he made contact with Warriors fullback Roger Tuivasa-Sheck.

Earlier this season, Parramatta five-eighth Dylan Brown was hit with a three-week suspension after dropping his knees into Roosters playmaker Drew Hutchison, which left him with broken ribs and a punctured lung.

Should Munster receive a similar punishment to Brown, it could put the Maroons star’s availability for Game Three in jeopardy.
