UK Rugby Player Hit With 5-Game Ban, Fine for Anti-Gay Slur

A British rugby player was hit with a five-game ban after calling another player a "fucking faggot" in May, the U.K. newspaper the Daily Mail reports.


Zak Hardaker, a 22-year-old Leeds full-back, was charged with a grade E offense, which carries a suspension between four and eight matches, after he was caught hurling anti-gay slurs during a match nearly two weeks ago. Additionally, Hardaker was fined £300 ($503 USD) by a Rugby Football League independent disciplinary tribunal.
