Italy's Marco Riccioni handed a two match suspension.

Marco Riccioni has been handed a two-match suspension after being involved in a brawl during Italy's heavy defeat to Australia. 

Although he was on the bench at the time, he lashed out at Miles Amatosero, punching him in the face, which sparked a scuffle involving several players and led to referee Ridley showing him a red card. 

The Foul Play Review Committee found the Italian prop guilty of conduct contrary to the spirit of fair play, in breach of Law 9.27.
