Bradford full-back Michael Platt is facing a potential five-match ban after being cited for an alleged head butt and punch.

The former Salford and Castleford player was sin-binned for his part in a flare-up in the early stages of Bradford's 28-18 defeat by Leeds last Friday and has now been charged with a grade D offence, which carries a suspension of between two and five matches.

He will appear before the Rugby Football League's disciplinary panel on Tuesday, along with Hull's Great Britain winger Gareth Raynor, who has been cited by the match review panel for an alleged reckless tackle during his side's 30-14 defeat by Huddersfield.

Hull KR full-back Ben Cockayne will not face a charge of alleged gouging during his side's 40-16 defeat by Harlequins because of inconclusive evidence.
