Rightly suspended and B sample confirmed anabolic steroid use.
My question. Does Rugby, like the relays at the olympics, overturn a result if a team member has been found to have been doping?
Usain Boult lost a medal because a teammate was later found to have doped. I can’t remember when the sample came from to cause the ban though.

I appreciate you trying to rescue our summer tour result last year!
I don't believe there is anything in the lawbooks about a result being overturned if a member is found to have been doping. I think it's the same for all the major ball-playing sports and I'm not sure why. Of course, not every result would be different if a player doped, but there must be an argument that someone on steroids could be the difference between a win and a loss.

If it was brought in I wonder whether we would see more or fewer tests from national unions?

Maximum sentence please
Were dyanti starting and vying with kriel for one wing? Mapimpi starts other wing, this leaves saffers a bit short? Mapimpi already a dubious enough defender
