DISCIPLINARY: Match Review Panel's view of 'crusher' tackle on Fitzgibbon

THE Match Review Panel's verdict on a controversial early incident during Warrington Wolves' loss to Wigan Warriors in Las Vegas has now been revealed. Wire second-rower Lachlan Fitzgibbon needed treatment early on having been the victim of an alleged 'crusher' tackle from Wigan prop Liam Byrne, with match referee Chris Kendall putting the incident on report. After Warrington's 48-24 defeat at Allegiant Stadium, head coach Sam Burgess said Fitzgibbon was unable to finish the game due to the after-effects of the incident and questioned Kendall's decision not to award a penalty. And upon further review, the Match Review Panel have deemed Byrne's tackle worthy of a Grade A dangerous contact charge, meaning one penalty point is added to his record. That is the only Match Review Panel charge stemming from the Vegas clash, with no Warrington players appearing on the Round Three disciplinary charts. In total, 11 charges have been handed out, with Leeds Rhinos prop Tom Holroyd facing the prospect of a six-game suspension having been summoned to appear before the Operational Rules Tribunal following a Grade E dangerous contact charge.
