Waratahs enforcer Lachie Swinton is out for the rest of the regular Super Rugby season after copping a seven-week ban to hurt his hopes of featuring at the Rugby World Cup.
abc.net.au/news/lachie-swinton-banned-for-seven-weeks-super-rugby-pacific-season/102239638Lachie Swinton's World Cup hopes, and Waratahs' Super Rugby Pacific chances, have been hit after the backrower copped a seven-week ban.
Waratahs will need to make the finals for Swinton to play Super Rugby again this season, but the NSW team's chances of doing so will now be much harder. Waratahs are currently ninth, but on equal points with Fijian club Drua in the eighth-and-last finals qualifying spot.
