Frank Pritchard will contest a one-match ban.

CANTERBURY forward Frank Pritchard is to front a specially-convened judiciary hearing on Tuesday night in his bid to play in Friday’s NRL semi-final against Sydney Roosters.

Pritchard will contest his dangerous contact charge and the NRL has agreed to bring the hearing forward from the usual Wednesday evening slot so the Bulldogs can have earlier clarity about his availability.
