Suspensions have been dished out to the three players that were red carded in when Leicester Tigers hosted Wasps in the Gallagher Premiership this past weekend.
All three players were shown a red card by referee Craig Maxwell-Keys, and accepted the charges, on a weekend that saw five players sent off in the league.
Following an online disciplinary hearing, Leicester’s Jasper Wiese has been banned for four weeks and team-mate Hanro Liebenberg for two weeks
Wiese was suspended for dangerous play after catching the head of an opposition player.
