Ablett sits out for Leeds

Leeds back-rower Carl Ablett will miss Friday’s clash against Huddersfield after being banned for one match.

Ablett, 25, was deemed to have made dangerous contact with Rhys Lovegrove in a tackle during the defeat against Hull KR last weekend.

He pleaded not guilty, but the RFL Disciplinary Committee handed him a fine of £300, on top of the one-match suspension.
