Lions lock punished
Simon Shaw has received a two-week ban for driving his knee into the back of Fourie du Preez.
The incident occurred in the 37th minute, and Shaw was sent to the sin bin by Australian referee Stuart Dickinson. Du Preez left the field soon afterwards and was replaced by Ruan Pienaar.
Shaw’s ban will run until midnight, 22 August.
