Leeds second rower Jamie Jones-Buchanan has been given a two-match ban for a dangerous tackle in his club's last match of the season.
Jones-Buchanan, who was sin-binned for his tackle on Leigh centre Greg Worthington during the Rhinos' 37-12 win over the Centurions last Thursday, was charged by a Rugby Football League match-review panel with a grade B offence and was given the suspension and a £300 fine by an independent disciplinary tribunal.
Jones-Buchanan, who captained Leeds in the absence of Danny McGuire and Rob Burrow, played the last 27 matches of the season after missing the first five through injury and will be permitted to serve the ban in his club's pre-season fixtures.
Leigh's former Leeds full-back Lee Smith was given a one-match ban for using his knees in the tackle in the same game.
