Jim Lynch, the Ayr Scottish Eagles coach, will send a video of his side's 7-4 Express Cup win over Sheffield Steelers on Wednesday to the Superleague after two of his players were injured in incidents not spotted by the referee or his linesman.

Ayr's leading scorer Dennis Purdie is in hospital with a serious dead leg after being kneed in the thigh by Corey Beaulieu and could be out for six weeks.

His fellow forward Sam Groleau needed six stitches and suffered mild concussion after being cross-checked from behind by Ron Shudra.
