Gold Coast forward Anthony Laffranchi will be available for Saturday's NRL clash with in-form Penrith after entering the early guilty plea to a high tackle charge.

The former test forward was charged with a grade one careless high tackle on Manly's Matt Ballin in the Titans' 24-22 win at Brookvale Oval on Monday night.

Melbourne's Brett White took an early guilty plea and escaped punishment on a dangerous contact with head and neck charge, but will miss this weekend's clash with the North Queensland Cowboys, after taking the early guilty plea on a grade one striking charge.
