Bath Rugby duo given two-week suspensions after disciplinary hearing

Francois Louw and Kahn Foutali's have both been given two-week suspensions after in-game incidents in the Harlequins win.

Louw was charged with tip tackling Charlie Mulchrone of Harlequins, contrary to law 10.4(j) or dangerous tackling, contrary to law 10.4(e) in the alternative. He pleaded not guilty to both charges and was found guilty of dangerous tackling. The incident occurred in the first half of the match.
 
Fotuali’i was charged with punching or striking Dave Ward of Harlequins and making contact with the head, contrary to law 10.4(a) to which he pleaded guilty. The incident occurred in the second half of the match.
 
The pair will be free to play again on Tuesday, March 7 but this means they will both miss Sunday's derby at Bristol and the top-of-the-table clash against Wasps at the Rec but will be back in time for the trip to Saracens.
