WARRINGTON WOLVES star Paul Vaughan could be banned for as many as six games after being slapped with a Grade E Unnecessary Contact charge in the aftermath of the club’s 18-6 defeat to St Helens last Friday night.
Vaughan has been a shining light for Warrington in what has been a difficult year for the Cheshire club, but the Wolves’ play-off charge looks to have taken a mighty hit.
When perusing the minutes from the Match Review Panel’s findings, Vaughan is alleged to have ‘lifted an injured player’: “Law 15.1 (i)
Makes unnecessary contact with a Player who is or may be injured. Grade E.”
If found guilty at an Operational Rules Tribunal tomorrow night, Vaughan could be out for between four to six matches.
