Pickets-O'Donnell To Miss Rest Of Season

[Dons News]

Joe Pickets-O'Donnell has picked up a two match suspension from the RFL. 

The forward was charged with Grade A striking, for a late tackle on Paul Crook in the 25th minute of our match with Rochdale Hornets on Sunday 4th September.

The charge was brought to attention of the RFL later than normal at a match review panel meeting on Thursday 8th September.

Pickets-O'Donnell pleaded guilty to the charge, however an independent tribunal upgraded charge to Grade B and handed him a two-match ban and £75 fine.

This means Pickets-O'Donnell will be unavailable for Sunday's play-off semi-final with Barrow Raiders and a potential play-off final should the Dons progress.
