WARRINGTON Wolves will be without two of their leading defenders when they host Hull FC on Sunday.
Captain Jack Hughes and hooker Daryl Clark, The Wire's top two tacklers in Sunday night's win against Leeds Rhinos, have picked up one-match suspensions from the Match Review Panel.
Hughes' ban comes from the late challenge on Luke Gale which resulted in him spending 10 minutes in the sin bin.
That challenge was considered grade B dangerous contact.
And Clark's one-match penalty notice is for a tripping incident.
Hull FC will be without their hooker Jordan Johnstone due to the grade B dangerous contact he has been considered to have committed in the Black and Whites' loss at home to St Helens last night.
Meanwhile, Leeds half-back Gale will sit out two matches as a result of grade B contact with referee Chris Kendall in the match against Warrington.
And Warrington forward Rob Butler, on loan to Leigh Centurions, has received a two-match ban for grade C punching in the match against Wigan.
