The prop is thus ruled out of action for the remainder of the URC season as well as this year’s Springbok Tests, at least.
Lions and Springbok prop Asenathi Ntlabakanye has been handed an 18-month ban by the Institute for Drug-free Sport following a anti-doping violation.
The Lions said in a statement on Thursday they would deliberate with MyPlyers – the players’ association – on the appropriate next steps.
They added they would continue to support Ntlabakanye.
The prop is ineligible to play from 13 May, ruling out of the rest of the URC season as well as the Springbok Test matches this year, at least.
This is a developing story.
