ST HELENS will appeal the one-match ban handed to star forward James Bell following the club’s clash against Leeds Rhinos.
Bell was charged with Grade B Dangerous Contact in the aftermath of Saints’ 20-6 Challenge Cup Sixth Round win over Leeds last Friday night.

However, the Merseyside club has taken the decision to appeal at an Operational Rules Tribunal tonight.
