Wallabies centre banned

Wallabies centre Hunter Paisami has received a suspension following a dangerous tackle on Springbok replacement flyhalf Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu. The incident occurred during the 78th minute of Australia's 42-38 victory over South Africa in Perth. Paisami's initial six-week ban was reduced to four Test matches by the disciplinary committee due to his conduct, remorse, and recent record.

The suspension rules the 28-year-old out of the upcoming Bledisloe Cup double-header against the All Blacks, leaving head coach Les Kiss facing midfield issues. With Len Ikitau also injured, Kiss has called up Isaac Henry, while Jordan Petaia, Joseph Suaalii, and Filipo Daugunu are also being considered as potential midfield options.
