With James Graham looking at a lengthy suspension for his gnawing on what could only be a very salty Slater, will he be able to play in international matches (NRL World Cup in February), or would those games he has to sit out be counted in the regular season alone?

If he gets more than 2 match suspension then no it won't count... Don't know the exact ruling but read that somewhere today..

The suspension has to be less then the amount of international games he could play for it to count. So because there is two England internationals this year, if he gets suspended for more then 2 games then the internationals wont count but if he gets suspended for less then 2 matches then it does count.

But trials do count so if the bulldogs play 2 or 3 trials next year that will count as part of his suspension
