Swire Shipping Fijian Drua captain Nemani Nagusa has been banned for four weeks after a red card for “a particularly dangerous tackle’’ against the Waratahs.

The Sanzaar foul play review committee accepted Nagusa’s guilty plea for contravening a law preventing players from making early, late or dangerous tackles.

Nagusa has been suspended up to and including May 8 after his late and high shot on Waratah Tane Edmed.

He copped an extra week as a deterrent.

The Drua meet the Brumbies at 9.45pm Saturday.
