Roosters forward Siosiua Taukeiaho has claimed a moral victory at tonight's NRL Judiciary, avoiding a fine after challenging his grade one careless high tackle charge.<\/p>\n

Taukeiaho was initially hit with a $1700 fine over the weekend for seemingly incidental contact on Panthers halfback Nathan Cleary, whose head met the Rooster's arm with force while falling.<\/a><\/p>\n

The incident prompted referee Ashley Klein to send Taukeiaho to the bin much to the dismay of Roosters coach Trent Robinson at the time. <\/a><\/p>\n

The 29-year-old looked to have the charge and fine wiped tonight at the NRL Judiciary, and emerged successful from his hearing after a three-man panel found him not guilty.<\/p>\n

Taukeiaho would have been handed a $2,250 fine had he been unsuccessful at the judiciary. His charge would not have incurred a suspension, regardless of the outcome at the judiciary tonight.<\/p>\n

Following the incident on Friday night, Cleary admitted he "fell into" the collision. Robinson struggled to come to terms with the decision from referee Klein.<\/p>\n

"I don't know where Siosiua was supposed to go," Robinson said.<\/p>\n

"Is he supposed to jump out of the way? I'm interested in what he was supposed to do?"<\/p>\n
