England forward George Burgess was
tonight suspended for four matches after being found guilty
of behaviour contrary to the true spirit of the game
(gouging) by an international disciplinary panel.
Burgess
was also fined £500.
The incident occurred in last
Sunday’s second Test against New Zealand at Anfield, and
the suspension will rule him out of this Sunday’s third
Test at Elland
Road.
