Leinster without James Ryan for Champions Cup opener as lock hit with three-match ban
"James Ryan will serve a two-match suspension after his red card against South Africa was upheld by an Independent Disciplinary Committee."
"The second-row is banned for Leinster's next three games, but can reduce that by one by completing World Rugby's coaching intervention programme - meaning he'll be back for their trip to face Leicester Tigers on December 12 in Round Two of the Champions Cup."
An Independent Disciplinary Committee upheld a red card issued to James Ryan for an incident against South Africa, resulting in a two-match suspension. The ruling places a ban covering Leinster's next three fixtures, with a one-match reduction available if Ryan completes World Rugby's coaching intervention programme. Completion of the programme would allow Ryan to return for Leinster's Champions Cup trip to face Leicester Tigers on December 12 in Round Two. The suspension affects the team's player availability for the immediate upcoming matches and offers a pathway to shorten the ban through mandated education.
