Former Wigan winger Tom Davies was also sent for 10 in the second 40 for a professional foul on Liam Marshall, who later went on to score the winning try.

Keighran, 26, was charged with two separate dangerous throws during the 80 minutes in Manchester, with a Grade C resulting in a one-match ban alongside a £250 fine for Grade B charge.

He will be able to serve the suspension during any 2024 pre-season friendlies.

Meanwhile, England skipper George Williams is expected to appeal his two-match ban ahead of the test series against Tonga.
