# Rugby: The Bulls are appealing their Springbok utitily forward Jan-Hendrik Wessels’ massive suspension of nine weeks despite the apparent lack of clear evidence. He was penalised after Connacht flanker Josh Murphy accused him of groping during last weekend’s United Rugby Championship match. The Bulls say no new video evidence was presented at the disciplinary hearing, and Wessels was apparently banned on the basis of the same footage from which the referees couldn’t find evidence of foul play. If the ban is upheld, his season will be over.
