Delasau tests positive for cannabis

Fiji wing to miss NPC opener

Fijian wing Vilimoni Delasau has been punished by the New Zealand Rugby Union (NZRU) Judicial Committee after testing positive for cannabis.

Delasau was required to provide a urine sample for drug testing following Fiji's match against the All Blacks in Albany on June 10.

The NZRU was advised of the positive test on August 3 and provisionally suspended the player until Friday's hearing.

Delasau duly missed a pre-season game and is now unavailable for Canterbury's NPC opener against Southland on Saturday. He was also issued with a fine of NZ$500 (US$350).

The Judicial Committee comprised chairman Bruce Squire QC, sports doctor Dave Velvin and former player John Leslie.
