Salesi Ma'afu and Tom Court were both sin-binned after the incident in the first half

Northampton Saints prop Salesi Ma'afu has been banned for two weeks by the Rugby Football Union, his second suspension of the season.

The Australia international, 31, pleaded guilty to striking London Irish's Tom Court during Northampton's 15-9 Premiership win on 13 February.

He will miss games against Bath and Harlequins, and will be available for selection again from 3 March.

Ma'afu missed last season's Challenge Cup final because of suspension.
