'Brutal' Boyoud banned

France and Bayonne prop Renaud Boyoud has received a 30-day ban for "brutality" during his club match against Toulouse in Top 14 action.

The 32-year-old Boyoud will miss two European Challenge matches as well as two Top 14 domestic ties as a result for the incident during the 35-6 defeat against defending champions Toulouse on September 21.

The same disciplinary commission also inflicted a fine of €5,000 and €6,000 on Top 14 clubs Stade Francais and Perpignan respectively for a brawl between players during the 34-24 victory for the capital side on September 22.
