Wigan’s Brad O’Neill and St Helens’ Moses Mbye to miss derby after bans

Wigan hooker Brad O’Neill and St Helens back Moses Mbye will both miss Friday’s Super League derby between the sides after being given one-match bans.

O’Neill, 21, was suspended by the Rugby Football League’s match review panel after a trip to the sin-bin for a lifting challenge on Leigh Leopards prop Rob Mulhern on Friday.

Meanwhile, Mbye, 30, was banned for a late hit during Saints’ shock defeat by Castleford Tigers on the same night.

The bans will leave both teams hampered in a key position with St Helens hooker Daryl Clark ruled out of their previous match with injury, while Kruise Leeming and Tom Forber are sidelined for the Warriors.

Wigan currently lead the Super League table on 26 points, four ahead of second-placed Saints.

The RFL has also handed Warrington Wolves forward James Harrison a one-game ban for a late hit during their emphatic victory over Huddersfield Giants.
