It is not good news for George Flanagan, who won't be playing again until late June. Picture: Tom Pearson.
BULLS hooker George Flanagan has been hit with a massive 10-game ban.
The veteran was found guilty of attacking an opponent's testicles during the first half of the Challenge Cup defeat to Featherstone.
The matter went to a disciplinary tribunal, and the hearing in Leeds last night took over three hours.
And it was bad news for Flanagan, who was also hit with a £250 fine. He had pleaded not guilty to the charge.
The 34-year-old was given an eight-match ban for a similar offence back in August 2019, which ended his season.
This latest ban will see Flanagan miss a huge chunk of the season. He is not due to return until Bulls' home game with Widnes on June 27.
