Deysel deeply ashamed of actions

Cape Town - Sharks flank Jean Deysel said he was deeply ashamed of his actions after being banned for seven weeks for foul play.

Deysel pleaded guilty after being charged for kneeing Crusaders loose forward Matt Todd in the back of the head during the Sharks' 52-10 Super Rugby loss to the Crusaders in Durban last Saturday.

Deysel was sent off during the game and appeared before a SANZAR Judicial Hearing where he copped the heavy ban on Tuesday.
