Parramatta's Kelma Tuilagi has abandoned his bid to downgrade a NRL dangerous-throw charge after he was ruled out for more than a month with a thumb injury.

Tuilagi was due to front the judiciary on Tuesday night to fight a grade-three dangerous throw charge over his tackle on Sydney Roosters forward Lindsay Collins, seeking to reduce his ban to two matches.
