He left the field looking clearly groggy and although he recovered in time to play for the French champions against Pau at the weekend, he took another knock to the head in the Top 14 clash as well.

"Due to a trauma suffered this weekend, and after a test today [Mnoday] requested by the France and club [Stade Francais] medical staff, the club neurologist ordered a two week period of rest," said a statement from the France squad.

Burban will miss the trip to Scotland this weekend and the potential tournament decider at home to England on March 19.
