Nelson Asofa-Solomona will miss New Zealand's Test matches against Great Britain as punishment for his involvement in a brawl in Bali.
The National Rugby League (NRL) has given the 6ft 7in, 18st Melbourne Storm prop a three-match ban following the incident which went viral on social media.
The 23-year-old will miss the Kiwis' match against Australia in Wollongong next Friday as well as the two games against the Lions in Auckland and Christchurch.
He was also issued with a suspended A$15,000 (£8,000) fine.
A statement from the NRL said: "The sanctions take into account evidence which showed a degree of provocation contributed to the incident, Asofa-Solomona's co-operation with the NRL investigation and the remorse he has shown.
"All clubs were advised prior to the start of the off-season that serious penalties would be imposed for all off-field incidents.
"The NRL expects exemplary behaviour from all players and any player who falls short of that standard will be sanctioned."
