Photograph: James Crombie/InphoThomas Ramos is set to miss Toulouse’s return Champions Cup fixture with Munster having been banned for five weeks following two citing complaints stemming from his side’s victory over Sale last Sunday.
The France international fullback was sent off in the 80th minute of the 45-19 Toulouse win for striking Byron McGuigan with his head. Ramos was cited for that incident alongside another in the 56th minute when he appeared to make contact with the eye area of Sharks scrumhalf Gus Ward. Following a disciplinary hearing, Ramos has been banned for five weeks and will not be free to play until Monday, January 23rd. Munster travel to the Stade Ernest Wallon to take on Toulouse on January 22nd.
At his hearing, Ramos accepted the red card decision. As a result, the disciplinary committee was able to reduce the low-range entry suspension of six weeks for the head contact down to four.
