Sam Tomkins has made a public apology to Leeds fans after making an offensive gesture during Wigan’s Challenge Cup celebrations.
The full-back suffered negative reaction from the Leeds following for raising two fingers to the crowd after his side’s 18-28 win in the Challenge Cup final.
"I apologise for my gesture to the Leeds fans at Saturday's Cup final which I regret immensely," he said.
"I got caught up in the heat of the moment of celebrating a try at Wembley but understand that my actions were unacceptable. There are no excuses and if I could go back and change things, I would certainly do so.
“I accept the disciplinary action taken by the club and hope my action does not reflect badly on the Wigan club, the coach or my teammates."
Wigan have reprimanded the 22-year-old and hit him with a fine after his actions at Wembley.
