Salford back rower Reni Maitua has been handed a one-match suspension and will miss the Red Devils’ Super 8s Qualifier against Bradford on Sunday.

Maitua was given a one-match ban for making a grade B dangerous throw on Leigh prop Jake Emmitt during Salford's 46-18 win over the Centurions on Saturday.

It was the Samoan international's second match for the club following his loan move from Kingstone Press Championship side Featherstone Rovers last month.

The 33-year-old was charged by the Rugby Football League's match review panel and pleaded guilty when he appeared in front of a disciplinary tribunal on Monday. Maitua was also fined £300.
