The Rugby Championship: Wallabies – Hooper made to sweat over Judicial Decision

Michael Hooper

Wallabies flank Michael Hooper will have to wait at least 1 more day to find out if he will be available for his team’s Rugby Championship decider against the All Blacks.

Hooper appeared before a SANZAR judicial hearing on Wednesday, where he was charged with having punched Argentina flyhalf Nicolas Sanchez in his team’s 34 / 9 win over the Pumas at the Estadio Malvinas Argentinas at the weekend.

Hooper was cited to appear before Nigel Hampton – via video conference – on Wednesday.

The Wallaby is alleged to have contravened Law 10.4 (a): Punching or striking.

The hearing has been adjourned until Thursday 30 July.

If Hooper is banned he could miss next week’s Rugby Championship decider between the Wallabies and All Blacks in Sydney.

He won’t be able to play for his club side this weekend but will be back for the big one next week. 😆
