Arthur Romano will miss the Mid Season International between France and England at Toulouse on Saturday.

The Catalans Dragons centre challenged a Grade B charge of dangerous contact in Saturday’s victory against Huddersfield Giants which carried a one match ban. The independent ORT dismissed the challenge and ruled it unreasonable, adding a second match to the suspension and a £500 fine.

The ORT downgraded a charge of unnecessary contact against the Batley Bulldogs hooker Alistair Leak in a recent Betfred Championship fixture.

The offence had been graded F by the Match Review Panel but the ORT reduced it to Grade E following Batley’s challenge , meaning a four match suspension and a £375 fine.
