Warburton: Banned for this tackle on Clerc

Warburton admitted committing "a dangerous tip tackle" on France wing Vincent Clerc when he appeared at a World Cup disciplinary hearing.

He can resume playing again on November 7 and will miss Wales' appearance in the World Cup third place play-off game next Friday, although he has 48 hours in which to lodge any appeal.
