WARRINGTON Wolves will be without James Harrison for Thursday’s Super League Round 17 clash with Leeds Rhinos at The Halliwell Jones Stadium.
The Wire starting prop has been handed a one-match ban after the Rugby Football League’s Match Review Panel decided he had made ‘grade B dangerous contact’ during his side’s 48-0 win against Huddersfield Giants.
Wolves head coach Sam Burgess already looked to be without Lachlan Fitzgibbon, Toby King and Connor Wrench for the Leeds clash following the injuries they sustained on Friday night.
Harrison is one of three players from across the 12 teams to have picked up a suspension from the weekend’s games.
The match review panel have issued the following sanctions:
Mike Cooper (Wigan Warriors) – Grade B Head Contact - £250 Fine
Robbie Mulhern (Leigh Leopards) – Grade B Dangerous Contact - £250 Fine
Luke Thompson (Wigan Warriors) – Grade B Dangerous Contact - £250 Fine
Brad O’Neill (Wigan Warriors) – Grade B Dangerous Throw/Lift – 1 Match Penalty Notice
John Asiata (Leigh Leopards) – Grade B Head Contact - £250 Fine
James Harrison (Warrington Wolves) – Grade B Dangerous Contact – 1 Match Penalty Notice
Yusuf Aydin (Hull FC) – Grade B Dangerous Contact - £250 Fine
Moses Mbye (St Helens) – Grade B Dangerous Contact – 1 Match Penalty Notice
