Landajo suspended for stamping Wallabies

Argentina scrum-half Martin Landajo has been given a one-week suspension for stamping in a weekend loss to Australia, the Rugby Championship organisers said Monday. Referee Wayne Barnes spotted the Puma stamping on the hands of two Wallabies during a ruck, but let him off with a verbal warning. However, the citing commissioner believed the offence met the red-card threshold and ordered a hearing, at which Landajo pleaded guilty. Australia won 54-17 in Rosario to finish third behind New Zealand and South Africa with Argentina winless and last for the second successive season. Source: AFP
