WATTS FREE TO FACE BRADFORD

Tuesday 20th July 2010

Story in brief:
HULL KR will be able to call on the services of Liam Watts for Saturday’s clash with Bradford Bulls after he escaped a ban from the RFL’s Disciplinary Committee...

The 20-year old prop was fined £500 for his part in the mass brawl in the 68th minute of the 210th Hull Derby last Thursday, but was not be punished by a ban.

However, the Robins will be without Ben Cockayne for two matches after he was found guilty and fined £300 for his involvement in the melee that also saw the utility back sin binned.

Cockayne will miss the games against Bradford Bulls and Castleford Tigers at Craven Park but will be available for selection when the Robins travel to Salford City Reds on Sunday 15th August.

Hull FC's Danny Tickle was banned for one game and fined £300, with the same financial penalty imposed on Sam Moa although he received no ban.

Tickets for Saturday's game (kick-off: 5.15pm) are available now from both of the club's Official Retail Stores at Craven Park and 269 Holderness Road, online via www.hullkrsuperstore.co.uk or by calling 0844 2490 105.

The two club's reserve grades will provide a curtain raiser to the match when they kick-off at 2.45pm.
