Warrington Wolves second-row Ben Currie has been banned for two games by the Rugby Football League for deliberate contact with a referee.

The incident happened in the 62nd minute of their Challenge Cup quarter-final victory over Leigh.

The 20-year-old submitted an early guilty plea and will miss Super League games against Wigan and Wakefield.

Meanwhile, St Helens' Joe Greenwood and Leigh's Fuifui Moimoi have been charged with making dangerous contact.

Greenwood, 22, has been cited (Grade C) for an incident with Kevin Brown of Widnes, and Moimoi, 35, was reported for a challenge (Grade B) with Wire's Daryl Clark.
