Leeds Rhinos, Huddersfield Giants and Hull FC dealt suspension blows after latest round of Super League

Leeds Rhinos back-rower James Bentley is set to miss Friday's trip to Leigh Leopards after receiving a one-match ban for striking.

Bentley was involved in an altercation with Tariq Sims in the early stages of Leeds' 18-10 win over Catalans Dragons and has subsequently been issued with a grade B charge by the match review panel.

The Rhinos lost Justin Sangare to a yellow card during the Headingley clash but the prop is free to face Leigh after receiving a £250 fine for a grade B head contact charge.
