Parramatta's Smith cops two-match ban
Parramatta Eels backrower Ben Smith will miss two NRL matches after failing to have his grade two dangerous contact charge downgraded at the judiciary on Wednesday.
Smith could have only missed one match with an early guilty plea after being cited for a hit on Gold Coast skipper Scott Prince during last Friday's loss to the Titans.
Instead he will now miss Friday's trip to Brisbane as well as the round 24 clash against the Wests Tigers.
