There were no charges from Leeds Rhinos' 34-12 loss at Wigan Warriors, so winger Liam Tindall is available for Thursday's game against Catalans Dragons at Headingley.

He was sin-binned for obstructing Wigan's Liam Marshall in the final stages of last Friday's match, but faces no further action.

Castleford Tigers prop George Lawler received a one-match penalty notice for a grade B shoulder charge in the loss at Warrington Wolves last Thursday.

That means he is set to miss Friday's return to his former club Hull KR.

No players were charged following Trinity's defeat at Catalans.

Hull's former Castleford and Leeds scrum-half Luke Gale, who was sent-off in last Saturday's defeat by St Helens, will appear before the disciplinary tribunal tomorrow to face a grade D charge of 'other contrary behaviour'.

Gale could be baned for three-five matches if found guilty.

He also received a three-game penalty notice for a similar offence which was graded C.

That rules him out of Hull's game at Rhinos in round five.

Players have until 11am tomorrow (Tuesday) to challenge any charges, but would risk their suspension being increased if a disciplinary panel decided the appeal was frivolous.

The full list of charges is:
