Australian Captain faces lengthy ban for biting
Wallaroos, captain that is, not the Wallabies.

Kiwi-born Australian women's rugby captain Liz Patu faces a lengthy ban from the game after video captured her allegedly biting an opponent over the weekend.
The incident happened in a Super W clash between Patu's Queensland side and Western Australia on Saturday. Video replays allegedly showed Patu sinking her teeth into the arm of Wallaroos teammate Rebecca Clough late into the match.
According to reports, Clough informed the referee of the incident but the official stated they didn't see it happened.
Former Wallabies player Drew Mitchell was commentating the game and called the act 'disgusting'.

Did she claim hunger as a defence? Ozzies not paying our girls enough?

Maybe she's having an affair with an M&M?
