Silvere Tian banned for threatening the referee
- 3946
Tian has been banned until June 2017 following his outburst on Romain Poite in Oyonnax's loss to Grenoble in the Top 14.
Tian was initially given a yellow card for an infringement which started his verbal tirade. Poite was left with no choice but to hand the Oyonnax full back a red card which resulted in more verbal abuse and threats.
Silvere Tian was then held back by his team mates after the game as he tried to confront Poite.
