The following players were handed cautions:

Siteleki Akauola (Salford) – Dangerous Contact
Josh Reynolds (Hull FC) – Other Contrary Behaviour

Luke Gale was sinbinned in Hull’s victory over Wigan Warriors on Saturday afternoon, but he has not been charged.

Instead, the Disciplinary Match Review Panel stated: “Player kicks ball away at a ruck. Professional foul.”

His teammate, on the other hand, Josh Reynolds was given a caution after ‘Throwing the Ball at an Opponent’.
