Wigan will be missing two key men for their Challenge Cup final clash with Warrington Wolves this Saturday after both Tyler Dupree and Adam Keighran were slapped with a three game ban, both after Grade D charges, Dupree’s for a Head Butt and Keighran’s for Head Contact after his red card during the Warriors’ cup final dress rehearsal against Warrington last week.
There will also be a Sheffield Eagles player missing out on a trip to Wembley this weekend, as Matty Marsh was given a two match penalty notice for a Grade D Dangerous Throw/Lift. Because of this, he will miss the Eagles’ 1895 Cup final showdown with Wakefield at the national stadium on Saturday night.
Elsewhere around the leagues, Bradford Bulls prop forward Eribe Doro will also be watching a few games from the sidelines following his three match penalty notice for a Grade D Head Butt charge. Workington Town’s Jake Bradley has also been given a ban, receiving a one match penalty notice for a Grade C Trip charge. There was also a ban in the Women’s Super League, with Vicky Molyneux of the Wigan Warriors receiving a one match penalty notice for a Grade C Dangerous Contact charge.
Also in the Championship, during a tribunal meeting on June the 4th, Jordan Gibson of Swinton Lions was handed a four game ban (as well as a £250 fine) for a Grade E Head Contact charge. During the meeting, the investigation into the use of unacceptable language during the Salford vs London match was closed due to lack of available evidence.
The following is a list of players who received a fine from the disciplinary panel this past week:
Brad O’Neill (Wigan Warriors) – Grade A Dangerous Contact – £250 fine
Liam Watts (Castleford Tigers) – Grade A Dangerous Contact – £250 fine
Frankie Halton (Leigh Leopards) – Grade B Dangerous Contact – £250 fine
Deon Cross (Salford Red Devils) – Grade B Dangerous Contact – £250 fine
