Solomona's action disheartens Sharks

Solomona, along with Manu Tuilagi, were sent home from England's training camp on Monday following "team culture issues", the Rugby Football Union said in a statement.

However, Britain's Press Association later confirmed the pair were disciplined for drinking alcohol during a three-day get-together in Teddington, southwest London.

New Zealand-born Sale wing Solomona, 23, made his England bow during a two-Test tour of Argentina in June, crowning his debut with a late match-winning try in a 38-34 win in San Juan.

Sharks Director of Rugby Steve Diamond said: "This is disappointing news because Denny has worked so hard since joining the club last December.

"He hasn’t had much time off and his performances earned him a place on the recent England tour to Argentina.

"This matter has been dealt with by the RFU and I will speak to Denny on his return to Carrington," he added.
