Broncos prop Annetta Nu'uausala will miss the last game of the regular season and her team's first finals match should they qualify.
Nu'uausala was placed on report and sent to the sin bin for an alleged hip drop tackle which ruled out Wests Tigers star Sarah Togatuki and was charged for Grade 3 Dangerous Contact by the Match Review Committee.
The veteran forward entered an early guilty plea and has been banned for two games.
Nu'uausala was also charged with Grade 1 Dangerous Contact and was issued a Warning.
Broncos teammate Brianna Clark was charged with a Grade 1 Dangerous Throw and has been fined $400 under Rule 39A after entering an early guilty plea.
Another Bronco, Chelsea Lenarduzzi, Sharks forward Holli Wheeler and Dragons winger Cortez Te Pou all received Warnings following incidents stemming from Round 8.
