Re: 6 Nations 2023 - The Other Teams
Any word yet on Gatland appointments.
He released the backs coach and the scrum coach but I haven't seen any news about any replacements.

More worry for England as Tom Curry limps off in Sale’s win over Harlequins
https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/ ... ugby-union
From the article above
Exeter’s Luke Cowan-Dickie also suffered a worrying ankle injury over the weekend and Owen Farrell is awaiting the citing commissioner’s verdict following a contentious high tackle in Gloucester on Friday night. Curry’s availability is therefore a further complication for the new England head coach Steve Borthwick as he looks to his first Six Nations campaign in charge.

Re: 6 Nations 2023 - The Other Teams
It's an RFU-appointed citing committee. There is no incentive for them to throw the book at him, he's going to be playing for their team throughout the Six Nations.IanD wrote: ↑January 9th, 2023, 1:02 pmI don't think he will get any reduction as he has history of bad tackles and bans.neill_m wrote: ↑January 9th, 2023, 12:29 pmHearing on Tuesday evening from 6:30pm.

IIRC he has 1 prior suspension.

It's called "coping a Johnson" for a reason.

Re: 6 Nations 2023 - The Other Teams
There is a lot of precedent to be respected in this, but I wouldn't bet against him avoiding a 6N ban of any sort. Could make Sarries vulnerable in one European game.
Re: 6 Nations 2023 - The Other Teams
From the article I linked.
"The three-time Lions tourist was banned for five weeks for a high tackle on Wasps player Charlie Atkinson in 2020, but the sanction was reduced from 10 weeks on account of off-field mitigating factors.
In 2016 he was suspended for two weeks for an illegal challenge on Wasps’ Dan Robson during a Champions Cup semi-final."
So this is a third citing for the same offence.

Re: 6 Nations 2023 - The Other Teams
They've picked an experienced Panel, chaired by the Head of RFU Disciplinary Philip Evans, with a women member, who may perhaps reflect the views of the woman TMO who was "over-ruled" by the referee Karl Dickson, in a somewhat peremptory manner.

Re: 6 Nations 2023 - The Other Teams
Farrell gets a 4 game ban, reduced to 3 if he does the tackle school so back in time for the 1st 6 nations game, now there's a surprise....
