Cannon handed two-week ban
Australia hooker Brendan Cannon has been handed a two-week ban after
sparking a brawl during the Wallabie's 16-7 defeat to New Zealand.
The 31-year-old traded punches with opposite number Keven Mealamu in
the opening match of the Tri-Nations.
Both players were sent to the sin bin in the 43rd minute but only
Cannon was cited and faced a disciplinary hearing.
Cannon's suspension means he will now miss Australia's next match
against South Africa in Perth on 31 July.
