UNSEEN television footage has cast doubt on Canterbury's appeal of the Josh Jackson concussion breach, which has the club facing a $20,000 NRL fine.

On Wednesday night Fox Sports broadcast a series of wide frame angles disputing Canterbury's explanation of the circumstances that saw Jackson play-on while concussed against Cronulla.

Reports on Wednesday claimed Bulldogs physio Steve McCullagh was treating prop forward Aiden Tolman for a head cut when Jackson sustained his injury in the dying stages of the Round two fixture at ANZ Stadium.

The NRL 360 program showed video of the final minute's play, when Jackson was dazed while making a heavy tackle from a line drop-out. At the time McCullagh was located behind the goal posts, with Tolman a long distance away on the bench.

After stumbling away from the initial knock, Jackson makes another tackle before McCullagh arrives to check him. After a brief consultation the trainer waves to the bench to indicate Jackson is fine to continue for the final 20 seconds.

When handing down its fine — $10,000 of which has been suspended — the NRL emphasised the Bulldogs had been punished for McCullagh's failure to remove Jackson from the field.

Bulldogs CEO Raelene castle has defended McCullagh's actions, indicating an appeal will be forthcoming.

The NRL has also issued the Bulldogs with a "please explain" over why prop James Graham was allowed to resume after undergoing an off-field concussion check in the Round Four clash against Melbourne. Should another breach be generated, the entire Jackson fine will take force, plus another $20,000, putting the club at risk of a $40,000 hit.
