Sam Hallas ahead of the Halifax game, where he was punched by Jacob Fairbank early on. Picture: Tom Pearson.
BRADFORD Bulls' opponents Halifax somehow won with 12 men on Good Friday at Odsal.
And the man who was sent off for the visitors has been handed hefty punishment.
Jacob Fairbank was dismissed after just a minute of action after punching Sam Hallas while the Bradford forward was on the ground.
And the RFL have now handed the Fax man a five-game suspension over the incident, meaning he will not be available until their Round 15 game against Whitehaven.
