St Helens make appeal decision on George Delaney ban

Yesterday the match review panel met and Leeds Rhinos, Wigan Warriors, Leigh Leopards, St Helens and Wakefield Trinity players all landed themselves in trouble with the disciplinary.

Of course for the likes of Leeds and Wakefield, this won’t matter too much but it is a problem for the sides in the play off picture.

Wigan picked up three bans but it won’t matter as they can serve their ban in the reserve Grand Final.

Meanwhile, Leigh have appealed the ban for Tom Amone leaving St Helens star George Delaney as the remaining banned player but they have chosen not to appeal the ban.

Wigan will have been nervous over a number of their stars after potential high tackles from a number of their star men.

The same could be said of Warrington Wolves whilst Max Jowitt could have faced a similar offence.

Leigh may have had a few worries with Edwin Ipape after a tackle similar to the infamous John Asiata tackles whilst Tom Amone was placed on report for a crusher tackle.

There could have been bans for yellow card offences from Sam Tomkins, Amir Bourouh, Sam Lisone and Liam Watts.
