Maroons players cleared of ‘eye gouge’ after Davis drops complaint
In case you missed it, there was a bit of drama in last night’s women’s Origin match, after Blues hooker Keeley Davis claimed she was the victim of an eye-gouge.
Davis has since decided not to pursue the complaint, after initially raising the issue with referee Belinda Sharpe alongside captain Isabelle Kelly in the 15th minute of the match
But Davis has since decided to drop the accusation after footage of the incident was inconclusive.
The match review committee did not charge a Maroons player for the offence when the Origin charge sheet was released on Friday morning, but Davis had the option to pursue the complaint further if she wanted to, which she decided against.

Nicho Hynes has now missed 10 field goals. But it’s not all his fault
Speaking of my Magic Round offsider Christian Nicolussi, check out this story from him yesterday.
The forgotten story from Wests Tigers’ golden-point thriller last Sunday was the three missed field goal attempts from Cronulla’s $1 million man Nicho Hynes.
Hynes was just inches away from being the hero when his first shot travelled nearly 50m and slammed into the left upright.
A second attempt in the 80th minutes was charged down by Tigers prop Terrell May, then a third attempt, in the second minute of extra time, was again blocked, this time by fullback Jahream Bula.
Hynes has had 16 drop goal attempts during his time at the Sharks, and he has missed 10 of them.
Rather than blame Hynes, however, his Cronulla teammates could have done more to help him seal the win on Sunday.
