Joseph Leilua's NRL season could be over with the Canberra Raiders centre facing a grade one shoulder charge.

The 23-year-old is looking at a two-week suspension for a clumsy effort on the Titans' David Mead – or three games if he challenges unsuccessfully.

Gold Coast's James Ryan is likely to miss a week for his dangerous contact charge from the same game, while teammate Kane Elgey will escape a ban for his almost comical tripping charge on a rampaging Leilua.

Warrior Bodene Thompson has escaped censure after being put on report for a crusher tackle in his side's 50-16 defeat at the hands of the Cowboys.
