Emre Guler: Wakefield Trinity fail in appeal against prop's ban

Wakefield have been unsuccessful in their appeal against the suspension given to prop Emre Guler for being sent off for punching in their play-off win over Leigh.

Guler, 28, was initially banned for two matches by the Rugby Football League's disciplinary panel, which ruled him out of both their semi-final at Wigan and the Grand Final should they reach it.

He has now received an additional five penalty points and been banned for a third match.

Turkey international Guler had agreed a deal to join Trinity for the 2027 season on a three-year contract but was granted an early release by St George Illawarra Dragons to allow him to move to Super League in August.
