Warrington Wolves forward Ben Westwood has been banned for one match after punching Wigan Warriors' Blake Green during Saturday's Super League Grand Final.

The suspension means that the 32-year-old will be available for England's World Cup opener against Australia on October 26. However, he will miss the team's pre-tournament friendly with Italy on October 19.

Westwood pleaded guilty to the offence when he faced a Rugby Football League disciplinary tribunal on Tuesday.

The incident took place during the first few minutes of the match at Old Trafford, which Wigan went on to win 30-16.
