Wakefield Trinity prop Emre Guler and Hull KR centre Peta Hiku discover disciplinary fate

Emre Guler's Old Trafford dream appears to be over after the Wakefield Trinity forward received a two-match ban for his punch in last week's play-off defeat of Leigh Leopards.
Wakefield Trinity prop Emre Guler and Hull KR centre Peta Hiku discover disciplinary fate

The former St George Illawarra Dragons prop brought forward his arrival to feature in the run-in, making four appearances for Daryl Powell's title hopefuls over the past month.

However, his rush of blood against Leigh has ended his season early, barring a successful appeal by Wakefield ahead of Saturday's semi-final at Wigan Warriors.

Guler was guilty of hitting out at opposite number Owen Trout while carrying the ball, earning him a red card at the time and a subsequent grade E charge that carries 17 penalty points.

Hull KR centre Peta Hiku has received the same punishment following a similar incident against Warrington Wolves.

The 33-year-old was given his marching orders after striking George Williams.

But whereas Guler is set to serve his two-game suspension in the play-offs, Hiku will carry his into next year following KR's elimination.
