Hill grade B reckless challenge (shoulder) EGP availble, so will get 1 match ban. Westerman is also charged a grade A he as an EGP so will just get a fine. For me Hill as been a penalty machine this season.

As a Leigh fan I would say Hill has carried your team for the last 5 years, if your not happy with him right now Im sure every other SL team would take him off your hands. I would think his tackle to penalty ratio is quite low seeing that he has been your top tackler for the last 2 or 3 years. Send him back home to Leigh Im sure we could find him a place.

Nope cant see in my post were i said im not happy with him, just this season more than all the other seasons he as picked up a lot of penalities, time was i always was afraid of Westwood being anywheŕe near a last tackle, just feels like Hill as taken that role on now.

He doesn't seem to be handling the leadership role very well. He's become very petulant this season, picking several scuffles almost exclusively with the smallest or youngest players on the other side. Was it a halfback he got pinged for in this example as well?

Yeah he's done that ONCE. He is, however, clearly frustrated with the shower of cack around him....as is Clark

Maybe he's just trying to lead from the front to get the team to "toughen up".

Perhaps he's picked up the wrong signals from the coach about how to go about it though?

On a positive note he'll get a nice rest for the more important game the week after

Not a stellar year by his standards. Certainly at risk of being in 17 for England Based on form. Certainly deserves it though based on long term form.

I agree. More important we fight for top 8 not get distracted by a cup we are not gonna win anyway.

Didn't one of the Cas players do worse & got no more than a raised eyebrow from Child ? Pity really that Hill's sending off came at a vital time for Cas's attack to take full control.

Good news for Wigan, we'll take all the help we can get at the minute !

There's something we agree on.

Hill's certain absence makes the -4 Handicap on Wigan look even better value now.

Joe Westerman has been cleared to face Wigan

RFL Disciplinary update: Chris Hill pleaded guilty but challenged grading of Grade B strikes with shoulder. Grading remains, one game ban and £300 fine.
