Worth pointing out that Bath's big day out at Twickers, with Leicester for company is Free To Air on Channel 5 as well as BTSport
On what grounds did they reduce it? "He was drunk and didn't know what he was saying"?Should've been more, really.
Can't believe they reduced it from 6 weeks despite him not owning up to it/apologising.

Surely that's why it's low end; not why it's reduced from the low end starting point?Was in the heat of the moment/not premeditated
http://www.englandrugby.com/news/sharks-solomona-appear-before-disciplinary-panel/ said:"The panel found that the player used language that was verbally abusive on more than one occasion in quick succession," said panel chair Samantha Hillas.
"The comments were offensive and have no place on the rugby field. However, the Panel accepted that they were said in the heat of the moment rather than premeditated.
"For these reasons, the panel deemed it was a low end entry point which carries a six week suspension as a starting point."
