PARIS: France lock Bernard Le Roux was cleared to play against Ireland in their Six Nations finale on Saturday after being cited for foul play against Wales last weekend.
The 31-year-old South Africa-born player appeared to strike the head of Wales skipper Alun Wyn Jones with his forearm in the first half of France’s 38-21 home victory in a friendly international last Saturday."The Disciplinary Committee found that Mr Le Roux had committed an act of foul play but that it had not warranted a red card, and that Mr Le Roux is therefore free to resume playing immediately," the Six Nations said in a statement.
France are third in the Six Nations table on 13 points, behind England on points difference, with Ireland sitting on top with 14 points.
