Wed 28 May, 01:09 PM


Leicester prop Julian White is free to play in Saturday's Guinness Premiership final against Wasps at Twickenham.

The Rugby Football Union have decided to suspend White for one week, but chose to enforce the ban from May 21 to 27.

The former England front row appeared before an RFU disciplinary hearing and was found guilty of stamping in the semi-final win over Gloucester.

Stamping usually carries a ban of between four to six weeks but Leicester acted swiftly to the incident, suspending White for seven days and fining him £5,000.
