The former Hull favourite was fined £300 by magistrates and banned from driving for 16 months after pleading guilty to getting behind the wheel while over the limit after watching the Champions League final in a pub last month.

Rovers coach Justin Morgan, who has included the player in his 19-man squad for tomorrow's match against St Helens, said: "Paul will be disciplined by the club but that will be dealt with internally."

Disciplined: Cooke's drink-driving ban is his third brush with the law in two years.

It is the third time Cooke has fallen foul of the law in the last two years.

In April 2006 he was convicted of careless driving, failing to stop after an accident and failing to report an accident. He was fined £400, ordered to pay costs of £250 and had his licence endorsed with five penalty points.

And in October that year he was fined £500 and ordered to serve 100 hours community service after being convicted of assault occasioning actual bodily harm following an altercation in a nightclub.
