Yesterday the match review panel met and Leeds Rhinos, Wigan Warriors, Warrington Wolves and Leigh Leopards stars landed themselves in trouble with 14 charges confirmed including six bans five of which were given to Super League stars.
But perhaps the most controversial situation is the story around Jack Wighton who allegedly bit Tyson Gamble during the play off clash between Canberra Raiders and Newcastle Knights.
This means he will face a mammoth ban at the start of his South Sydney Rabbitohs career.
This comes after an in depth look at the action from the Match Review Panel who fortunately didn’t have such a high profile incident though there was an allegation over biting in an academy game.
The action started at Belle Vue where a valiant Wakefield fell 18-0 down. Though they finished with a flourish, they went on to suffer defeat 18-10.
Elsewhere on Friday night, Castleford Tigers stormed to victory over Hull FC helped by a drop goal and a brilliant brace of tries from the young Jason Qareqare.
A defeat for Hull FC but their rivals Hull KR further cemented their play off spot as they defeated Huddersfield Giants to end their own play off hopes.
But the main event on Friday night was indeed the clash between Leigh Leopards and St Helens which was one of the games of the season and showed that both of them can compete when it comes to the end of the season.
Saturday though saw the big game but it was something of a squash match as Wigan Warriors ran in nine tries against Leeds Rhinos with Jake Wardle scoring a hat trick to humiliate the Rhinos and hand them one of their worst ever defeats.
Lastly on Sunday, Warrington suffered golden point heart ache against Salford.
