LEIGH LEOPARDS have been given bad news over their appeal of John Asiata’s one-match penalty notice at an Operational Rules Tribunal last night.
The Tribunal rejected a challenge from John Asiata of Leigh Leopards against the grading of a Grade C Dangerous Contact charge from Sunday’s victory against London Broncos.
Asiata is therefore to serve a one-match suspension and the club loses the £500 bond. That means that Asiata will miss Leigh’s clash against Warrington Wolves this weekend.
