Leeds Rhinos' Rhyse Martin "sick" of disciplinary talk ahead of Super League Grand Final

Leeds' Rhyse Martin is "sick of wasting energy" on controversial disciplinary talk.

All his efforts now are trained on dethroning champions St Helens. The Australian second-row returns to action in Saturday's Betfred Super League Grand Final after being forced to sit out his club’s two play-off games. He was handed a one-match ban for a high tackle on Alex Mellor that even the Castleford player felt wasn’t even a penalty.
