Wakefield Trinity’s Liam Hood will miss Sunday’s visit of Rhinos after being handed a one-match penalty notice for grade B dangerous contact during the loss to Leigh Leopards in Newcastle.
His teammate Eddie Battye faces no further action over a grade A dangerous contact charge.
Castleford Tigers’ Liam Watts received a one-game suspension for grade B dangerous contact against Rhinos and will miss Friday’s home game against Salford. It is his ninth ban in 18 months.
Warrington Wolves’ Josh McGuire has been referred to a disciplinary hearing tomorrow (Tuesday) after being charged with grade F uncceptable language in the previous week’s game at Leigh.
