Storm unconcerned by Harris report

Melbourne coach Craig Bellamy doesn't expect Tohu Harris to be charged despite being placed on report during their clash with Canberra.

Melbourne believe Tohu Harris isn't in danger of missing the Storm's NRL finals clash against Parramatta despite being placed on report during their 32-6 win over Canberra.

The second-rower, who has battled foot and shoulder injuries this season, was placed on report in the 60th minute for making dangerous contact with Raiders halfback Aidan Sezer.

Harris was on the attack and fended off Sezer, who wasn't hurt in the clash.

Storm coach Craig Bellamy said the incident was common place in the game and didn't think the New Zealand international would be charged by the Match Review Committee.

"That's not my decision but you usually see one of those in nearly every set of six," Bellamy said.

"He certainly didn't get him with the elbow, I know the forearm was up there but that happens a fair bit.

"I didn't get a close look at it but it looked a pretty tough call to me. I don't think he has too much to worry about."
