England Under-20 player George Timmins has been banned for five matches after an ugly incident against Scotland in the World Rugby U20 Championship in Italy which left Scots prop Ollie Blyth-Lafferty needing stitches. The Bath flanker, who was sent off in the match in Verona, will now miss the remainder of the tournament. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Blyth-Lafferty was lying prone on the turf when Timmins brought his elbow down into the face of the Edinburgh player. Blyth-Lafferty had to go off for treatment on his wound but was able to return after receiving stitches. Scotland's Ollie Blyth-Lafferty had to go off for stitches during the World Rugby U20 Championship match with England. | SNS Group / SRU An Independent Foul Play Review Committee (FPRC) was convened to consider sanctions and decided on a five-match suspension after determining Timmins' actions to be contrary to Law 9.12 (striking with the elbow). The sanction has been accepted by the player. 'Vulnerable position of the victim' A statement from World Rugby said: 'The FPRC decided that the correct entry point for the offending was top end. In reaching their decision, the Committee considered, amongst other factors, the deliberate actions of the player, the vulnerable position of the victim player on the ground, and the victim player suffering an injury to his face which required stitches.' Timmins will miss England's remaining pool stage matches at the tournament, against South Africa and Australia, and two further play-off games against opponents yet to be determined. In addition, the back-row forward will also be suspended for a Bath pre-season friendly which was revealed to be at home to Glasgow on September 6.

Kenny Murray, the Scotland coach, is hopeful Blyth-Lafferty will be fit for Scotland's next match, against Australia in Viadana on Friday. 'He's got some stitches just underneath his eye,' Murray said after the match. 'Hopefully we can get him through into the next game. It doesn't look like anything too major to be honest.' World Rugby also announced that Randall Baker of New Zealand U20 had been suspended for three matches after being cited for a dangerous clear out against U20 in Calvisano.

Mum who abused son so badly he lost both his legs is FREED from jail four years early
Double-amputee Tony is the youngest ever recipient of the British Empire Medal MONSTER FREED Mum who abused son so badly he lost both his legs is FREED from jail four years early Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AN EVIL mum who abused her baby so badly he had to have both legs amputated was released from prison today. Jody Simpson, 33, and her partner Anthony Smith, 53, were sentenced to 10 years in prison in 2018 for causing or allowing the torture of their son Tony Hudgell, now 10. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Evil mum Jody Simpson subjected her baby to awful abuse seeing her jailed for 10 years Credit: SWNS 6 Tony Hudgell had to have both his legs amputated in 2017 as a result of abuse 6 But Simpson has now walked free, sparking outrage Credit: Enterprise Now, the cruel parent has walked free from prison - after serving only around six years of her sentence. Double-amputee Tony, who is the youngest ever recipient of the British Empire Medal for his fundraising efforts, faces life-long challenges due to the injuries he received as a tot. But, after two years on license Simpson will face no conditions on her freedom. Simpson was first released from prison on license in February 2023 - after only serving five years of her sentence. Then, less than a year later in May 2024, the monster was recalled to prison after starting a relationship with a sex offender - in breach of her conditions. She was due to be automatically re-released earlier this year, but Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood stepped in – forcing Simpson to face a parole hearing on May 19. Now, it can be revealed that she has been released, with strict license conditions controlling what she does for the next couple of years. Simpson will have to report any new relationships to her probation officer, get regularly drug tested and will be GPS tagged. Paula Hudgell, 57, from West Malling, Kent, who adopted Tony when he was just a baby, said: 'It just feels very unfair that Simpson is now free to live her life and Tony is still dealing with the consequences of her actions and will be for life. 'I appreciate there is a prison overcrowding crisis and that the Parole Board has placed strict conditions on her, but it does not feel like enough. 'After her license expires in two years time she will be completely free to do whatever she wants - including getting in a situation where she could cause harm to more children. 'That is why I am campaigning for a national Child Cruelty Register to be introduced. 'It would work in a similar way to the sex offenders register and would mean people like Simpson would be monitored for life to prevent her hurting anymore innocent kids. 'Nothing can change what they did to Tony, but by bringing in this measure we could stop horrific incidents of abuse and neglect from happening in the future.' Simpson and Smith were convicted of causing or allowing a child to sustain an injury and neglect by failing to seek immediate medical attention Doctors discovered baby Tony had multiple catastrophic injuries to his tiny body - with both his birth parents failing to get him help before it was almost too late. Both of his legs were amputated and the brave 10-year-old faces ongoing struggles due to the severity of the injuries inflicted on him. A Ministry of Justice spokesperson said: 'This was a horrific crime that saw Tony Hudgell mercilessly tortured by his birth parents and our thoughts remain with him and his loved ones. 'Now that Jody Simpson has been released as directed by the Independent Parole Board, she will be subject to strict supervision and licence conditions. "She faces an immediate return to prison if she breaks the rules.' 6 Tony Smith Jr's injuries were so bad his legs had to be amputated Credit: Enterprise 6 Prince William and Princess Kate met Tony and Paula in 2021 Credit: AFP
