Previously a grade B charge would have led to a one- or two-match penalty notice, but from this season only offences of grade C or above lead to a ban.
Lisone faces no further action for grade A late contact on a passer. Lisone was cleared by the panel after being cited for a shoulder charge and also over allegations of shoulder contact by the ball carrier and striking with an arm.
Allegations of a high tackle by Rhinos’ Mikolaj Oledzki and that Salford’s ex-Leeds man Jack Ormondroyd had made shoulder contact while carrying the ball were also dismissed.

The panel took no action against Leeds stand-off Blake Austin, who was sin-binned for a ‘professional foul’, after obstructing Brodie Croft as the Salford man chased his own kick.
An alleged dangerous throw by Rhinos’ James McDonnell, which resulted in a penalty leading to Salford’s second try, was reviewed, but the panel’s minutes noted: “Player does not lift opponent into a dangerous position”.
Wakefield Trinity forward Kevin Proctor avoided a ban after being sent-off in his side’s defeat at Warrington Wolves. Proctor was charged with a grade B high tackle and fined £250.
St Helens’ former Leeds centre Konrad Hurrell was fined £250 for grade A disputing a decision in the champions’ loss at Catalans Dragons. Catalans’ Julian Bousquet was cautioned for dangerous contact.
