Hull KR's popular veteran forward Stanley Gene has been cleared to make an emotional farewell appearance at Craven Park.

The 35-year-old Papua New Guinea international was found guilty of foul play in Rovers' 44-8 play-off defeat at Leeds last Friday when he appeared in front of the Rugby Football League's disciplinary committee.

He was fined £500 but has avoided any suspension, which frees him up to play in Rovers' final home game of the season against Wigan on Saturday evening.

Gene was cited for "behaviour contrary to the spirit of the game" after making what the RFL match review panel called "unnecessary contact" with the face or eyes of Leeds full-back Brent Webb.

Gene, who first joined Rovers after representing the Kumuls in the 1995 World Cup, is in his second spell with the club but is out of contract at the end of the season and unlikely to be offered a new deal.

He is set to go into coaching but has not yet decided whether to hang up his boots.

Hull KR's season will come to an end if they lose to Wigan in the second preliminary semi-final.

Castleford utility back Ryan McGoldrick was handed a one-match ban after being found guilty of a careless high tackle on Wigan full-back Cameron Phelps during the Tigers' 18-12 play-off defeat on Sunday.

McGoldrick, who was also fined £300, will be able to use one of Castleford's friendlies to wipe out the suspension before the start of next season.

Meanwhile, Keighley three-quarter Daley Williams will miss the Co-operative Championship Grand Final on October 4 after being handed a two-match ban for punching an opponent during the Cougars' 32-18 semi-final win over York.
