BEN Currie is among eight players to be charged by the Match Review Panel following the weekend's Super League matches.
However, the Warrington Wolves forward will be free to face St Helens in the Challenge Cup this weekend.
Currie has been hit with a Grade B charge of dangerous contact following a tackle in the first half of Friday's visit to Leeds Rhinos.
The incident was reviewed by the video referee at the time and cleared but now, the panel have deemed it worth of a charge. Currie went on to be named Sky Sports' player of the match as he helped The Wire to a 34-8 victory.
Thankfully from a Wire perspective, the only punishment attached is a £250 fine, so he remains available for the trip to the Totally Wicked Stadium.
Wire will still have prop Paul Vaughan missing for the game as he completes a two-match suspension.
