Warrington Wolves, Leigh Leopards and St Helens men banned as nine Super League players charged

WARRINGTON WOLVES’ Lachlan Fitzgibbon, Leigh Leopards’ Edwin Ipape and St Helens forward George Delaney have all been banned by the Disciplinary Match Review Panel following the weekend’s Super League action,

Fitzgibbon was charged with Grade D Head Contact, incurring 15 penalty points and thus a two-match suspension and a fine.

Ipape and Delaney have both been charged with Grade A Late Contact on Passer, receiving one penalty point each.

However, because of their points tally record, both men have been banned for one game, meaning Ipape misses Leigh’s clash against Huddersfield Giants and Delaney misses Saints’ fixture against Castleford Tigers.
