World Rugby have confirmed use of the system for tournament while the England captain faces a second hearing after his red card against Wales
Farrell faces second hearing after red card against WalesWorld Rugby has confirmed the “bunker” review system for yellow cards will be introduced for the forthcoming World Cup despite the furore caused over Owen Farrell’s recent sending off.
As both incidents involved contact with the head, the players are facing six-week bans. Vunipola would hope for a significant reduction having not served a suspension before and can also have another week taken off his ban for attending tackle school. If the red card is upheld he can expect a minimum suspension of two weeks, however, ruling the No 8 out of England’s World Cup opener against Argentina on 9 September.
Meanwhile Eddie Jones has called on the services of New Zealand’s World Cup‑winning coach Steve Hansen in an effort to turn around Australia’s fortunes. The Wallabies have lost all four matches in Jones’s second spell in charge but he and Hansen are close friends and, as revealed by the Sydney Morning Herald, the New Zealander is undertaking unpaid work with Australia before their World Cup campaign.
