Ahead of tomorrow\u2019s disciplinary verdict, a number of Super League players will be hoping to avoid a charge from the Match Review Panel.<\/p>\n

Most of this week\u2019s sweats come from Leigh Leopards, who, in their win over Leeds, had a number of players penalised for incidents of illegality.<\/p>\n

The man most fearing a ban is Andy Badrock, who was sin-binned for a hip-drop style tackle on Harry Newman. Post-match, Adrian Lam said the tackle was \u2018part of the game\u2019, but he would appear to be in the minority given the reaction to the tackle online.<\/p>\n

There were penalties called against Isaac Liu for a shoulder charge in the opening minutes on Kallum Watkins, Joe Ofahengaue, who hit Lachie Miller with a shoulder to the head, but mitigation saved him.<\/p>\n

Edwin Ipape hit Brodie Croft late twice, but only one was penalised, whilst Miller was the victim of a late hit by Jack Hughes.<\/p>\n

On the same evening, York\u2019s Paul McShane was penalised for dangerous contact on Matty Ashton, whilst Ata Hingano caught Ewan Irwin high, and was also penalised.<\/p>\n

Wakefield duo Tyson Smoothy and Jazz Tevaga hit players late, with Tevaga taking out Tristan Sailor and Smoothy attacking the St Helens kicker. The latter was penalised.<\/p>\n

In Castleford\u2019s win over Hull FC, Alex Mellor\u2019s knee made contract with the head of Logan Moy, though it appeared accidental with the Tigers man seemingly slipping before making the tackle.<\/p>\n

Lastly, Tristan Powell of Huddersfield was shown a yellow card for a high tackle on Tiaki Chan. Taane Milne was also yellow-carded, but that was for a professional foul, so it shouldn\u2019t warrant a charge.<\/p>\n
