World Rugby statement: Wales' Donna Rose disciplinary hearing
By PA
Wales forward Donna Rose has received a two-week ban after being cited for foul play during the World Cup in New Zealand. She will miss Wales’ final pool game against Australia on Saturday, but her suspension will be halved if she completes World Rugby’s coaching intervention programme.
That would mean Rose being available for the quarter-finals if Wales progress to the knockout phase. She was cited for making contact with an opponent in a ruck above the line of the shoulders against New Zealand, World Rugby said.
Rose appeared before an independent disciplinary panel and has a right of appeal. Wales will be guaranteed a last-eight place by beating Australia, but even if they lose, Ioan Cunningham’s team could still qualify as one of the two best third-placed sides.

Don't get too excited about your victories over the ABs. 1 point in the RWC, then 4 and 6 in the RC, with an SA try that should never have been given. And they scored 4 tries in one game through your much vaunted defense.
Go to commentsWas Jordie Barretts the first test against B&I Lions? He was outstanding in that and showed the same raw instinct and skills JAS did. He, like Wright, did go on to show he didn't have the experience or the temperament to know when to use them after that of course, I'm not sure that JAS looks like he'll have that same problem.
