Wales fullback Lee Byrne is now available for selection for Saturday’s 6 Nations international against England at Twickenham following an appeal brought against the level of sanction imposed on him for misconduct during the Ospreys' recent Heineken Cup victory over Leicester.

 

The appeal was heard by an independent committee in Glasgow and Byrne was represented by Adam Lewis QC on the instructions of Hugh James senior partner, Gareth Williams.

 

Williams, who is a longstanding legal representative of the Welsh Rugby Union said: “I am delighted Lee now has the opportunity to play for Wales on Saturday. I’m sure we are all looking forward to putting these events behind us and enjoying what promises to be a fantastic occasion at Twickenham."
