Bailey and Walker to face RFL committee

Leeds prop Ryan Bailey and Catalans winger Chris Walker will face the RFL Disciplinary Committee tomorrow, after incidents at the weekend.

Bailey has been charged with making a tackle that placed undue pressure on the shoulder joint of Stuart Fielden of Wigan in the 80th minute of the game at DW Stadium last Friday.

Walker is charged with illegal use of the forearm in a 69th minute tackle on Hull KR Liam Colbon, which left the Rovers winger with a broken jaw.

Joel Tomkins of Wigan is to receive a formal caution over his use of the knees in a tackle on Leeds hooker Danny Buderus while Hull FC prop Ewan Dowes has also been cautioned for a tackle that placed undue pressure on the shoulder joint of Salford City Reds loose forward Luke Swain.
 
The Match Review Panel also charged Richard Chapman of Hunslet Hawks with making an illegal high tackle on Halifax’s Luke Branighan in a Northern Rail Cup fixture on March 21.
