    Canterbury are set to test the NRL league judiciary

    Canterbury are set to test the NRL league judiciary


    They are seeking to overturn a three-game suspension for forward Jacob Preston.

    He faces three weeks out with an early guilty plea for a grade-one crusher tackle on the Titans' Tino Fa'asuamaleaui late in the Bulldogs' Magic Round win.

    Preston will walk away with no suspension if successful tonight, otherwise a further week could be added.
