The SANZAAR foul play review committee accepted a guilty plea from Springbok wing Kurt-Lee Arendse and suspended him for four weeks suspension.
The 26-year-old Arendse was suspended for contravening Law 9.17, which says that a player must not tackle, charge, pull, push or grasp an opponent whose feet are off the ground.
Arendse was red carded during the Boks’ 26-10 win over the All Blacks at the Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruit on Saturday evening.
This was after Arendse’s dangerous tackle on Beauden Barrett towards the end of the match. Arendse has been suspended from all forms of the game until 17 September 2022.
