Northampton's Clark banned for 32 weeks

Northampton Saints flanker Calum Clark has been banned for 32 weeks for an incident during the team's LV Cup final defeat to Leicester Tigers 11 days ago.

The 22-year-old was cited for breaking the arm of Leicester's Rob Hawkins.

The Aviva Premiership club had suspended Clark "indefinitely" on Friday for the incident.

He has now been given a 32-week suspension for "an act contrary to good sportsmanship" following an RFU hearing.

Clark will next be available for the Saints on Friday, November 2.
