All Blacks hooker Keven Mealamu will miss this Saturday’s match against Scotland after being handed a four week suspension for foul-play in his side’s 26-16 victory over England at Twickenham. The Judicial Officer (JO) appointed by the IRB, Professor Lorne Crerar, upheld the citing complaint against Mealamu having struck an opponent, England number 7, Lewis Moody, with his head. The JO further determined a mid-range entry point in the IRB list of sanctions (eight weeks) but in the absence of aggravating factors, together with compelling mitigating factors including the player’s conduct at the hearing and his exemplary disciplinary record, the suspension was reduced to four weeks. The player is accordingly suspended up to and including Saturday the 4th of December 2010. The Player has the right of appeal.
