Reynolds gets downgrade at NRL judiciary

NSW five-eighth Josh Reynolds is free to play in State of Origin game two after having a dangerous throw charge downgraded at the NRL judiciary on Thursday night.

NSW Blues and Canterbury Bulldogs player, Josh Reynolds, arrives for a Judiciary Hearing at Rugby League Central (AAP).

Reynolds had the charge reduced from a grade two to a grade one, meaning he won't miss any football and is available for the June 18 clash against Queensland at ANZ Stadium.

The Bulldogs No.6 was potentially facing a three-week ban after he was charged over a tackle which cartwheeled Queensland winger Brent Tate onto his back in the first half of the Blues' 12-8 win in Wednesday night's Origin opener.

Bulldogs chief executive Raelene Castle faced the media outside the NRL judiciary with Reynolds by her side but the five-eighth didn't speak.

"It was a brave decision to challenge the grading," Castle said.  

"Josh is one of those players who plays with a huge amount of passion but never plays with intent to injure anyone."
