Arundell Verdict In: England Speedster Disciplined After Red Card Citing

England wing Henry Arundell will be available for Saturday’s Six Nations showdown with Ireland at Twickenham after learning his fate following last weekend’s red card.

The 23-year-old faced a disciplinary hearing on Tuesday after being shown two yellow cards in England’s 31-20 Six Nations defeat to Scotland national rugby union team.

Arundell was first sin-binned for failing to release in the tackle, before picking up a second yellow for taking out Kyle Steyn in the air.

The Bath flyer’s double yellow resulted in an automatic 20-minute red card, leaving England down to 14 men for a total of 30 minutes during the clash.

However, the disciplinary panel ruled that no further punishment was required.

In a statement, it was confirmed the player accepted the acts of foul play that led to both yellow cards, but officials deemed the dismissal itself to be a sufficient sanction — noting the first offence was technical in nature and the second a separate incident.
