National offcials takes action after team hits the town after win against Ireland.
Australia coach Ewen McKenzie announced Monday that six members of his tour squad in Europe would receive one-match bans for “inappropriate” drinking.
McKenzie said wingers Adam Ashley Cooper and Nick Cummins; front-rowers Tatafu Polota-Nau, Benn Robinson and Paddy Ryan; and backrower Liam Gill had all drunk so much in the build-up to the Wallabies 32-15 win over Ireland on Saturday they deserved a one-match ban.
The suspensions will be served in this Saturday’s clash against Scotland at Murrayfield with the exception of Ryan, who will serve his suspension in Australia’s final tour clash against Wales in Cardiff on November 30.
