Hull’s Micky Paea has also received a two-match ban and fined £300 for a dangerous contact on Richard Owen during their defeat to Castleford on Sunday.
Huddersfield’s Michael Lawrence has been banned for one game and fined £300, although full-back Scott Grix avoided suspension after pleading guilty to a kicking out offence in their game against Bradford.
