A London Broncos star and a former Super League playmaker were two of six players to be handed bans after the latest round of Championship action.<\/p>\n

It was a round that was packed with one-sided games but one that game that was far closer than many expected saw London Broncos fight back from 16-6 down to beat Doncaster<\/a> in a top of the table affair.<\/p>\n

One of the Broncos\u2019 key men has since been banned with NRL recruit Siliva Havili handed a two-match ban for foul and abusive language toward a match official, meaning he will miss games against Midlands Hurricanes and the 1895 Cup quarter-final against Midlands Hurricanes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bans at Championship level are always moved forward a week due to the disciplinary news coming late in the week, so Havili will be able to play against Goole Vikings this weekend before his ban begins.<\/p>\n

Also charged in that game was former Hull FC man and current Doncaster outside back Mitieli Vulikjapani with the Fijian handed a Grade C charge for dangerous contact.<\/p>\n

Championship and reserves disciplinary wrap results in several bans<\/p>\n

Former Super League man Danny Addy was also banned with the ex-Bradford Bulls and Hull KR man shown red against Rochdale Hornets and subsequently banned for two matches.<\/p>\n

That red card has actually saved him from a three-match ban as it took his charge from 18 points to 17, with the RFL laws being that penalty points are removed from charges when red cards are shown as a player has already served some form of immediate punishment.<\/p>\n

The same applied to Jamie Dallimore, however, the Rochdale man had points on his record already meaning the red card reduction was not enough to save him from a three-match ban as he too was charged 17 points but for a headbutt, instead of punching.<\/p>\n

Dallimore\u2019s teammate Dylan Kelly Duffy was another to be handed a Grade E charge, albeit for a dangerous throw, meaning he too is banned for three matches.<\/p>\n

Others to be banned included ex-Bradford man David Foggin-Johnston, handed a Grade D charge for head contact whilst Huddersfield Giants\u2019 reserve team player Wladimar Matahwa landed the same charge but for dangerous contact instead.<\/p>\n

Wigan Warriors had Mia Atherton handed a Grade B charge for head contact in the club\u2019s 112-0 Challenge Cup win over London Broncos.<\/p>\n
