Coach Richards barred for faking blood injury

Williams
Former England forward and Harlequins director of rugby Dean Richards has been disqualified from coaching for three years for his part in masterminding a fake blood damage to one of his players.

The 46-year-old was hit with disciplinary action after a consideration by an independent European Rugby Cup (ERC) panel found he had "organized the fabrication of a blood injury" on wing Tom Williams through a European Cup quarterfinal match against Leinster.

With his side sprawling by one point Williams, under instructions from Richards, faked a cut in his mouth with a tablet of fake blood, thereby allowing goal-kicker Nick Evans to return to the field of play.
