St George Illawarra's Tyrell Fuimaono and the Warriors' Eliesa Katoa are both facing one-match NRL bans for dangerous tackles during Friday night's action.

Second-rower Fuimaono landed a grade-two dangerous contact charge for his tackle on Eels prop Junior Paulo during their two-point win.

He faces a one-match ban with an early guilty plea or risks a two-match suspension if found guilty at the judiciary.

Fellow back-rower Katoa was hit with a grade-one charge for his tackle on Penrith's James Fisher-Harris during their loss and unless he successfully challenges, is in line for a ban due to his 70 carry-over points.

Think. Is this a bet you really want to place?
