“We will fight that decision.”

Brad Fash also had his say on the decision.

“We are going to fight it and we will see what happens. I’m sure it will go just fine,” Fash said on Sky Sports after Hull’s win over Warrington.

Minchella posted an official complaint against Fash for biting to referee James Child.

Hull KR boss Tony Smith had his say after the Hull derby game.

“I haven’t even inquired yet. I’m too joyous and I didn’t want to get to any negatives just yet,” Smith told Hull Live.

“That will be in the aftermath and a little bit tomorrow as well. I didn’t even ask him so apologies I haven’t got that settled yet.”

Brett Hodgson then had his own say on the issue, stating: “I don’t know what happened. I don’t know why the referee called the touch judge in so I’ll have to wait and see what happened there I’m afraid.”
