Two Super League clubs appeal suspensions

Yesterday, Leeds Rhinos, Wigan Warriors, Warrington Wolves, Huddersfield Giants and Salford Red Devils all landed themselves in trouble with the Match Review Panel.

There were 14 charges and six bans five of which went the way of Super League players after the match review panel reviewed the incidents from Super League Round 25.

Now two clubs have chosen to appeal the bans stemming from the the action which 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.
