Update on the Etzebeth story if people haven't seen it. The heading was yesterday but they've delayed the decision until Sunday because the 3man panel couldn't agree on where to place the starting point for the ban. There's not many details but the debate is around whether it was reckless or intentional. The upper limit for a ban is 4 years as above but if it was judged intentional the minimum (before any mitigation) is 12 weeks and 6-12months would be the most likely. However because there's some disagreement I'm expecting it to be near the bottom end of that and for him to get a little leniency on top so 8-12 weeks, which would mean him getting off very lightly.
