Not a surprise really - before anyone chimes in saying it wasn't that bad a tackle - what would Terry Newton have got?

Should have been at least a couple.

It was a bad challenge and he deserved to be sent off by Bentham (I think it was).

Should have got at least two matches.

Aizue at Hull KR got 3 matches for a tackle which was much more of a reaction with less intent. Wilkin is very lucky... Level playing field???

Although, to be perfectly honest, I'm only interested in whether he was banned for Friday or not. Doesn't really matter if he plays against anyone else, that doesn't really affect us too much. Plenty of time for him and Newton to bash each other up in the semi-final...

Maybe, but it's still one rule for them and one for the rest. Why wasn't his record taken into account like Newton's always is? He's already been banned once this season.

Plus, I want the Bulls to beat them in the semi!

I would have given him 3 totally deliberate and dangerous play, inexcusable. I think the RFL should turn into a circus.
