Glasgow centre McDowall banned for three weeks

Glasgow Warriors and Scotland centre Stafford McDowall has been suspended for three weeks for making "reckless contact with the eye" of Toulon's Facundo Isa in Glasgow's Champions Cup loss last weekend.

The 26-year-old was cited for the incident - which was missed by officials at the time - after the game.

The offence was deemed to be at the low end of the scale of seriousness, with an entry point of six weeks' suspension subsequently reduced to three on grounds of McDowall's "good disciplinary record and timely acceptance of the charge".

McDowall will miss both of the 1872 Cup matches against Edinburgh over the festive period, in addition to Glasgow's Champions Cup match against Racing 92.
