# Rugby: Japan’s national team will be without head coach Eddie Jones for the next six weeks after he was suspended for abusing match officials during the under-23s tour of his home country of Australia last month. The Japanese governing body says the 66-year-old was banned for a very serious matter. He will miss the Nations Championship Test against Italy in early July, two matches against Hong Kong China and one against the Maori All Blacks. Jones accepted his punishment and says he deeply regrets his behaviour.
