3 Game Suspension for Davies

The Disciplinary process related to Seb Davies Red Card in the Vodacom United Rugby Championship Round 18 game against Ospreys on Saturday, June 1 has resulted in a three game suspension.

After an act of foul play by Cardiff Rugby player No 19 (Seb Davies), referee Adam jones showed the Player a Red Card in the 75th minute of the game under Law 9.13 – A player must not tackle an opponent early, late or dangerously. Dangerous tackling includes, but is not limited to, tackling or attempting to tackle an opponent above the line of the shoulders even if the tackle starts below the line of the shoulders.

In the Player’s responses to the Judicial Officer overseeing the disciplinary process (Mr. Andrea Caranci), he had accepted that he had committed an act of foul play which warranted a Red Card. Mr. Caranci found that the incident met the Red Card threshold, with entry of mid-range warranting six weeks. The Player received three weeks (50%) mitigation due to his apology and good record which results in a three game suspension.

Should the Player complete the World Rugby Coaching Intervention Programme then the sanction will be reduced by one week.
