Leeds Rhinos supporters appear split on the news that the club have accepted a one-match ban for forward James Bentley. The Rhinos tweeted that they had made the decision not to contest Bentley's ban, which rules him out of Saturday's televised meeting with Catalans Dragons.
Bentley was penalised in last week's win over Castleford for a late hit on Tigers half-back Jacob Miller. At the time, only a penalty was awarded but the Ireland international was then cited by the Rugby Football League's Match Review Panel following the weekend.
He was handed a one-match ban, and Leeds decided not to appeal the suspension. It means that after a 2022 campaign which was punctuated with multiple suspensions, Bentley is being forced to sit out game-time once again after being handed a ban.
