Four Super League players have received suspensions following the latest round of action.

Warrington’s Sam Kasiano has received a one-match ban and will miss Saturday’s televised fixture against Hull. The 32-year-old forward received a Grade B Dangerous Contact charge following their 38-0 win over Castleford.

He was also fined £250 for an additional Grade A Strikes charge following the match at the Mend-A-Hose Jungle.

On his 300th career appearance, Adam Milner picked up two separate charges for Grade B Dangerous Contact. The utility forward was charged twice with late contact on the passer and has picked up a two-match ban.

He played the full 80 in the defeat to Warrington, including a shift to hooker as captain Paul McShane was forced from the field through injury.

It means the 31-year-old will miss games against Catalans and Wakefield.

On loan at Wakefield from Huddersfield, Sam Hewitt will be sidelined with a one-match suspension. The forward received a Grade C Dangerous Contact charge.

Hull’s Ligi Sao will miss Saturday’s trip to the Halliwell Jones Stadium following a charge for Grade B Dangerous Contact.

Catalans winger Tom Davies didn’t receive a ban following his late hit on Leeds’ Richie Myler during Channel 4’s televised Super League fixture from Headingley Stadium.

He was charged with a Grade A Dangerous Contact but with no further action.

Scott Taylor, Matty Lees and Harry Newman all picked up £250 fines.
