Highlanders prop Daniel Lienert-Brown has received a four-week suspension after being found guilty of a dangerous tackle in contravention of Law 9.13.<\/p>\n
The dangerous play, for which Lienert-Brown received a red card, occurred in the 7th minute of last Saturday’s match between the Hurricanes and Highlanders at Hnry Stadium in Wellington.<\/p>\n
The Foul Play Review Committee (FPRC) determined that the act of foul play merited a mid-range entry point of six weeks\/matches.<\/p>\n
In light of Lienert-Brown’s acceptance that he committed an act of foul play, as well as mitigating factors such as his recent disciplinary record and remorse, the FPRC applied a reduction in the sanction of two weeks \/ matches.<\/p>\n
Lienert-Brown has been suspended from all forms of the game for four weeks \/ matches.<\/p>\n
The player was granted approval to apply to the World Rugby coaching intervention; however, he has already completed the course in 2026 for a ruck infringement, and it will be at the discretion of World Rugby to accept his application.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Highlanders prop Daniel Lienert-Brown has received a four-week suspension after being found guilty of a dangerous tackle in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":694826,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567],"tags":[64,63,760,85],"class_list":["post-694825","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-rugby","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/694825","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=694825"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/694825\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/694826"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=694825"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=694825"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=694825"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
