Nathan Cleary has been charged with a grade-one dangerous contact charge for his tackle on Sydney Roosters' playmaker Hugo Savala, but can escape with a fine and play in Penrith's preliminary final next weekend.
The match review committee issued the verdict on Monday, with the penalty being $1000 should Cleary plead guilty, and Cleary also needs scans for a foot injury.
