Tom-Learoyd-Lahrs, Ryan James and Liam Fulton will each sit out one trial game following the results of Tuesday's NRL judiciary.

Gold Coast second-rower James and Fulton pleaded guilty to dangerous contact and dangerous throw charges respectively, following Saturday's NRL All Stars clash on the Gold Coast.

Wests Tigers utility Fulton was hit with a grade two charge, playing for the NRL All Stars, in an incident involving Johnathan Thurston.

But discounts for an early guilty plea and a clean record over the last seven seasons reduced the ban to just one game - which Fulton will serve when the Tigers take on Parramatta in Saturday night's pre-season clash at Campbelltown Stadium.

Canberra forward Lahrs did not contest the dangerous contact charge laid against him after making contact with NRL All Stars winger Brett Morris with his knees in the third minute of the game.

Subsequently, Lahrs will miss Canberra's trial game with Melbourne in Bega on Saturday, and will accrue just 20 points going into the new NRL season, which he can work off in four games.
