Fiji's Semi Radradra Suspended for High Tackle Against Wales

Radradra's three-week ban means he will miss crucial matches against Spain and Ireland this month.

  • Radradra received a red card for a high tackle on Wales fullback Cameron Winnett during Fiji's historic 24-19 victory in Cardiff.
  • The ban was initially set at six weeks but was reduced to three due to his clean disciplinary record and shown remorse.
  • The suspension rules Radradra out of Fiji's upcoming internationals against Spain and Ireland in November.
  • Radradra can return to play for his club Lyon against Pau on November 30 if he completes World Rugby's coaching intervention program.
  • This incident marks the first time a player was sent off under the new 20-minute red card rule, which allows a substitute after 20 minutes.
