Mike Cooper was sent off against Castleford for the tackle which prompted his ban

Warrington prop Mike Cooper will miss Friday's Super League play-off eliminator against Hull KR after receiving a one-match ban.

The 33-year-old was sent off in Thursday's regular season win over Castleford, following a high tackle which struck Tigers prop Liam Watts.

Cooper has now been handed the one-week penalty notice by the Rugby Football League's match review panel.

He can appeal against the Grade B charge at an independent tribunal.

Meanwhile, Salford outside back Dan Sarginson received a three-game ban, following a Grade C striking charge in Friday's win over St Helens.

The 28-year-old will miss the opening three games of the 2022 season, as Salford are not involved in the play-offs.
