Huddersfield Giants halfback Will Pryce has been banned for ten matches following his red card against Hull FC.
Pryce was dismissed for a dangerous tackle on Connor Wynne in the second half of his side’s Super League defeat last Sunday.
The Match Review Panel graded the offence at Grade F, which carries a minimum eight-game punishment, with the charge sent to tribunal.
The tribunal has now handed down a ban of ten games, citing a preview dangerous throw during an Academy match against Bradford Bulls last May.
As well as the mammoth suspension, Pryce has also been fined £500.
Meanwhile, Wigan Warriors have been unsuccessful in their appeal against Kaide Ellis’ five-match ban for punching in their defeat the previous week at Catalans Dragons.
