Bristol Bears and England prop Kyle Sinckler will miss the start of the Six Nations after being banned for two weeks for swearing at a referee.

He will miss England's opener against Scotland on 7th February, but will be back to face Italy a week later.

Sinckler, contested the charge of failing to respect the authority of a match official at a hearing yesterday.

However, it was ruled he did direct his "aggressive" language towards Karl Dickson in Bristol's win at Exeter.
