And the final game of those 5 is a Challenge Cup game hopefully against lower opposition where he could (potentially) have been rested anyway. So league games it's only 4.

I agree. Five games seems more sensible, compared with the 8 matches being banded about and I think this warranted the immediate appeal, as there was no precedent to this incident.
Ultimately, it was still a bad challenge by Luke. I don’t think he’ll be trying to tackle with his foot again.
At least we know where we stand now.
I hope Brett and the Club have a word with the squad though. We’ve clocked 8 match suspensions in two games and this has to change if we are going to be competitive.
