Semi Radradra Suspended for Three Matches

Fiji winger Semi Radradra has been suspended for three matches following a red card issued during Fiji's 24-19 victory over Wales, where he committed a high tackle on fullback Cameron Winnett. This incident marked the first application of the new 20-minute red card rule, which temporarily removes a player from the game. The independent disciplinary panel initially set his ban at six weeks but reduced it due to Radradra's clean disciplinary history and expressions of remorse. Radradra will miss upcoming international matches against Spain and Ireland but may shorten his suspension to two weeks by participating in World Rugby's coaching intervention program. He is eligible to return for his club Lyon against Pau on November 30 if he complies with the program's requirements.
