Six Nations all over for Irish kicker

7:21 am on 18 February 2010

The Six Nations rugby championship is all over for Ireland's hooker Jerry Flannery who has been banned for six weeks for kicking the French winger Alexis Palisson last weekend in Dublin.

Flannery pleaded guilty to kicking Palisson's leg, and the Frenchman limped off the field soon after.
