Hull KR's Mitch Allgood has been banned after confronting referee Richard Silverwood during their 28-16 Magic Weekend defeat to Hull FC

Hull KR prop Mitch Allgood has been handed a one-match ban for making deliberate contact with a referee.

Allgood was charged by the Rugby Football League's match-review panel with a grade B offence, after remonstrating with Richard Silverwood during the recent Magic Weekend in Newcastle.

The forward was unhappy with Silverwood's decision to award a try to Hull winger Curtis Naughton during his side's 28-16 derby defeat.

The Australian forward submitted an early-guilty plea and will miss KR's match against Catalans Dragons in Perpignan this Saturday.

However, Rovers will have hooker Shaun Lunt available for the trip to France after he admitted a grade A offence in the same match.

Lunt made a dangerous throw on prop Liam Watts but was told he faces no further action.

Meanwhile, Salford winger Justin Carney will lose his ever-present league record after submitting an early-guilty plea to a grade B dangerous throw on Chris Bridge of Widnes.
