GILT TRIP

Warrington hot-head Dudson insists he can't afford any more 'brain explosions' after seeing red for this rash punch

- DAVE CRAVEN

WARRINGTON hot-head Gil Dudson admits that he must adapt his game quickly and can't afford any more "brain explosions".

The Wales prop (above) has completed a five-match ban for inexplicably punching Catalans winger Tom Johnstone during last month's Super League clash in Perpignan.

He was red-carded for the rash act on his grounded opponent, but ironically could return at the same venue as Wolves are back there for Saturday's mouthwatering Challenge Cup tie.

Dudson joined Daryl Powell's side from Catalans ahead of this campaign, but has managed only three games, having also broken his hand in a pre-season friendly.

Speaking about the Johnstone incident publicly for the first time, he said: "I didn't even know I'd done it until I saw it on the replay.
