Nikora accepts two-match ban

Sharks back-rower Briton Nikora will miss the next two matches after entering an early guilty plea for a Grade 2 careless high tackle on Bulldogs counterpart Viliame Kikau on Friday night.

Nikora was sin-binned for the incident in the first half of the 25-6 win over Canterbury at PointsBet Stadium. With it being his second offence, Nikora would have been suspended for three games if he unsuccessfully fought the charge.

The 26-year-old will be unavailable for Saturday's clash with Wests Tigers at Leichhardt Oval and the Round 4 home match against the Raiders on Easter Sunday.
