That's how I read it.

Read closer, there is no warning. The penalty reads exactly as follows:

PENALTY: At the end of playing action, the umpire shall issue a warning to the coach of the team involved and the next offender on that team shall be ejected, except for (f), where the coach shall be ejected. In (b), it is also obstruction (8-3-2).

Now, I can certainly see where you might think that a warning is given in (f), but as stated in this thread case play 3.3.1 JJ indicates it is an immediate ejection.
