Ban him for the season. No excuse for racism. Wigan need to punish him as well or even sack him. Unforgivable.

I'd guess there must be evidence available in order to bring the charge, but we'll all have to await the verdict.

He's been suspended for now but I suspect he will be cut loose if he is found guilty.

I appreciate people might not want to write it out on a public forum so feel free to PM me, but what racist term are we talking about? Perhaps I'm naïve but I can't readily think what racist term anyone would throw out at a player born in New Zealand of Samoan descent.

Apparently called Savelio a “Polynesian ****”. The word Polynesian isn’t racist in itself isn’t racist, it’s just adding the **** which then makes it into a racist slur.

It’s just unnecessary, what’s wrong with sticking a man on his booty?

Never understood name calling like this, cut it out of the game.
