Matavesi handed four-week ban

Worcester centre Josh Matavesi will miss the final two games of the season after being banned for a high tackle in Sunday's 17-47 defeat at Saracens.

The Fiji international pleaded guilty to the charge of a dangerous tackle, contrary to Law 10.4 (e), on Neil de Kock and has been suspended for four weeks.

The suspension runs from April 16 to May 6 and from May 31 to June 6, and he is free to play again on June 7. The second period covers Fiji’s matches against Japan and Canada in the Pacific Nations Cup.
