Leicester Tigers prop Boris Stankovich has been cleared to play on after a citing for an alleged dangerous tackle in the Aviva Premiership match against Bath on October 1 was upheld with no further action to be taken.

At the same RFU Disciplinary Panel hearing, London Irish No.8 Chris Hala’ufia pleaded guilty to the citing by Gloucester Rugby of a dangerous charge during the match at Kingsholm on October 1. He was suspended for seven weeks and will be able to play again on November 29.

His London Irish clubmate Faan Rautenbach pleaded not guilty to the charge of striking an opponent in the same match which was upheld with no sanction imposed.
