Trio in derby brawl handed suspensions
Wigan forward Gareth Hock received a two-match suspension and a £300 fine, while team-mate Chris Tuson was given a one-match ban and £300 fine. They will both miss the Warriors’ clash with Leeds on Friday. Hock will also miss the Warriors’ trip to Montpellier the following week to play Catalan Dragons.
All three players appeared in front of a Rugby Football League disciplinary panel in Leeds yesterday. A third Wigan forward, Lee Mossop, accepted a one-match ban after being cited by the RFL’s match-review panel for his part in the fighting.
