The Warriors will be without co-captain James Fisher-Harris for this weekend's NRL game against the Canberra Raiders.

The prop has been handed a one-match ban for a careless high tackle.

He caught Dolphins front-rower Harrison Graham high in the 77th minute at Suncorp Stadium on Saturday and was sent to the bin.

Fisher-Harris had only just returned from injury, which had kept him out of the team for a month.

Had he chosen to fight the charge at the judiciary and been found guilty, he would have missed two games.

From the same game, Dolphins playmaker Kodi Nikorima was fined $2000 after entering an early guilty plea to a grade 1 careless high tackle charge.

The Warriors are second on the NRL table and on a five-game winning streak.

They take on the third-placed Raiders on Sunday.
