Scotland forwards Ross Ford and Jonny Gray have been suspended for the rest of the Rugby World Cup for dangerous tackles made against Samoa.
Both players were cited for incidents during the Scots' narrow win over Samoa at St James' Park last week, which has seen them hit with three-week bans.
Australian citing commissioner Scott Nowland accused Ford of breaching rules on dangerous tackles, while Gray was accused of committing an illegal tip tackle in the match.
As a result of their three-week suspension, the duo have been ruled out for the rest of the tournament, although they do have 48 hours to appeal the sanction.
Scotland face Australia in their quarter-final clash on Saturday.
