Warrington prop Ashton Sims and Leeds full-back have both been banned for one game, after submitting Early Guilty Pleas (EGP) to charges relating to the last round of Super League fixtures.

Sims submitted an EGP to a charge of Grade B punching on Wigan’s George Williams, during last week’s game between the players’ respective teams.

Warrington hooker Daryl Clark has admitted a Grade A offence of making dangerous contact with Williams in the same incident as Simms.

He now loses the right to submit an EGP for 12 months.

Hardaker has received his one-game ban after submitting an EGP to the charge of a dangerous throw on St Helens full-back Travis Burns, an offence for which he was sinbinned.
