4 Game Suspension for Reynold

The Disciplinary process related to Reynold Lee-Los’ Red Card in the Vodacom United Rugby Championship Round 10 game against Connacht on Saturday, February 17 has resulted in a four game suspension.

After an act of foul play by Cardiff Rugby player No 13 (Reynold Lee-Lo), referee Andrea Piardi showed the Player a Red Card in the 14th 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. Achille Reali), he had accepted that he had committed an act of foul play which warranted a Red Card. Mr. Reali found that the incident met the Red Card threshold, with entry of mid-range warranting six weeks. The Player received an increase of one week for aggravating factors (previous offender of the same Law 9.13) and received three weeks mitigation due to his acceptance of guilt, immediate remorse and apology which will result in a four game suspension.

  1. Sport Trivia: Ghana first competed in 1952 when the country was still known as Gold Coast. Where were the Olympics held in 1952? Answer: Helsinki – The Olympics were originally scheduled to be held in Helsinki, Finland, in 1940, but were cancelled due to the Second World War. The athletes from the Gold Coast competed in five events, but didn\’t win any medals at their Olympic debut.

  2. Some of the sports’ most loyal fans consider cricket their religion – and they have a god. His name is Sachin Tendulkar. Although there are cricketers with excellent numbers, Tendulkar’s fans may have a point. Over his 24-year long career, he has notched 34,357 runs, averaged 51.74 half-centuries in 664 international matches, and has achieved 100 centuries. This, along with his charisma, earned him the nickname, God of Cricket.
