NRL chief executive Todd Greenberg has admitted the match review committee should’ve charged Roosters prop Dylan Napa for the tackle which broke the jaw of Broncos forward Korbin Sims.

The NRL came under fire from Brisbane coach Wayne Bennett on Monday after Napa, who was sin-binned for the incident, escaped any further sanction over the hit which occurred last Friday night at Suncorp Stadium.

“My first thought was that the referees on the field did a good job. I thought it was a good sin bin,” Greenberg told NRL 360.

“Ultimately, then it goes to an independent process which is our match review committee.

“My personal view is player safety always comes first, and if you’re going to err on the side of caution, I thought it warranted a charge.”

“That’s a tackle that happened in real time. You have two experienced coaches, who I have a great admiration for, Trent Robinson at the Broncos and Wayne Bennett at the Broncos. They’re both watching the same game, at the same time, and both have polar-opposite views of that particular tackle.

“I think that gives you some insight into the challenges the game faces.”

Bennett was furious when he spoke to News Corp about the incident, saying Napa was reckless in the way he went into the tackle.

“Why hasn’t the game made Napa accountable?” Bennett said.

“I know there will be a s***fight coming my way but I’m not backing away from it.

“I am not going to watch my players get broken jaws and remain silent.

“When you go before the judiciary, they will ask the player, ‘What was your duty of care?’

“Where is Napa’s duty of care?”

He also accused the match review committee of inconsistency, pointing to Sam Thaiday’s suspension last year for pulling at the injured hand of Melbourne’s Jesse Bromwich.
