Harlequins’ Sinckler hit with one-week ban

Kyle Sinckler will miss Harlequins' game against London Irish this weekend after being handed a one-week ban.
The tighthead was yellow-carded and subsequently cited for a tackle on Northampton's Samu Manoa last Friday and was found guilty of “dangerous charging”.
The 21-year-old pleaded guilty and will be allowed to return to action on March 9 which leaves Conor O'Shea with only recently signed Matt Shields as the only available tighthead in his senior squad with Will Collier out for the rest of the season with a knee injury.
