Hull KR's Elliot Minchella has been handed a one-game ban following his yellow card in the Challenge Cup final, as reported by bbc.com.

The forward was charged with a Grade B 'other contrary behaviour' offense for a late hit on Leigh Leopards' kicker Ben Reynolds.

As a result, Minchella will be absent from the upcoming Super League game against St Helens on Friday.

Additionally, St Helens prop Matty Lees will also miss out after receiving a two-match ban for a high tackle in Saints' league victory over Huddersfield Giants.

Surprisingly, Huddersfield forward Joe Greenwood, who was sent off in the same game, has only been fined £250 for his Grade B striking offense.
