A hectic weekend started with the news that heade coach Paul James and the Patriots players had avoided any serious repercussions from the incident that followed the buzzer at the recent match at Manchester Giants.
James received five penalty points, along with all of the Patriots players, while Manchester were hit much harder.
Head coach Brian Semonian received 10 penalty points and will consequently serve a one-match suspension, while Giants player Austin Lawton received 20 penalty points. He will consequently receive a two-match suspension and has been issued with a monetary fine.
