Two-game ban for Dragons' prop Romain Navarette
Tuesday 6 September 2016 21:22, UK
Catalans Dragons' prop Romain Navarette has been handed a two-match ban, after being found guilty of raising his knees in the tackle during the recent home defeat by Warrington.
Navarette, who denied the offence when he faced a Rugby Football League independent disciplinary tribunal, was also fined £300.
The suspension rules him out of the forthcoming Super 8s game at Wakefield on Friday, as well as the home match against Castleford the following weekend.
However, two other Catalans players, Richie Myler and Julian Bousquet, will face no further action after submitting early-guilty pleas to grade A offences in the same game.
Meanwhile, Featherstone's Bradley Knowles-Tagg will miss his club's Qualifiers clash at Salford on Sunday.
The forward was given a two-match ban and a £100 fine for a dangerous throw.
