RFU suspend Parks for three weeks
Richard Parks
Parks was sin-binned for a defensive infringement
Leeds back rower Richard Parks has been suspended for three weeks by the Rugby Football Union (RFU) following his sending off against Wasps on 26 March.

Parks had already been banned for a fortnight by Leeds after being ordered off for dissent in the 28-0 defeat.

But that was extended by a week at an RFU disciplinary hearing where the Welsh international was found guilty of verbal abuse to a match referee.

The 28-year-old will be free to play again on 17 April.

Parks had never previously been sent off in his career.
