TYLER DUPREE has been unsuccessful in challenging the Grade C Head Contact charge handed to him in the aftermath of Wigan Warriors’ 12-4 defeat to St Helens on Good Friday.

It means that Dupree misses Wigan’s clash against Leigh Leopards on Thursday evening, whilst his teammate Liam Byrne will sit out the Warriors’ next four games after pleading guilty to Grade E Head Contact.
