Schoeman accepted that he had committed an act of foul play deserving of a red card, which he received from referee Chris Allison in the 20th minute of the game at Cape Town Stadium, with his side losing 29-10 to the home side.

The 29-year-old player received mitigation for his apology and conduct following the incident. But two previous red cards affected the sanction.

The URC confirmed this weekend the card was awarded in line with law 9.20a - dangerous play in a ruck or maul.
