With the Italian season set to recommence next month with Guinness PRO14 derbies, Zebre have announced that 8 players are no longer on roster at the club.
Three players were called to account for alleged acts of foul play in last weekend's opening round of the European Challenge Cup... two were sanctioned and the other exonerated.
Various acts of striking caught the eye of three match citing commissioners in last weekend's round one fixtures in Europe's second tier competition.
Impressive scrum-half Kieran Hardy scored two of his side’s eight tries as Scarlets continued their unbeaten start to the Guinness PRO14 campaign against Zebre at Parc y Scarlets.
Zebre have named a 45-man strong squad for the 2019/20 and includes both Irish and English players.
Bryan Byrne's late try and Ross Byrne's subsequent conversion saw champions Leinster snatch victory over Cardiff Blues in the Pro14.
