💨 Abstract

Eben Etzebeth has been suspended for 12 games after being found guilty of making intentional eye contact with Wales flanker Alex Mann during the Springboks' final Test. The initial sanction was 18 games, but it was reduced due to Etzebeth's clean record and other mitigating factors. He will miss several key matches for the Sharks, including games against Toulouse, Saracens, and local rivals like the Bulls and Stormers.
