The Free State Cheetahs has recently been informed of the punishment imposed on Nico Lee, centre of the Toyota Cheetahs, due to his uncharacterised behaviour.

The unsportsmanlike behaviour is seen in a very serious light by rugby hierarchy.  The Toyota Cheetahs condemn this behaviour which it is not part of the team culture and accept the punishment as such. 

Nico is a star player and according to information from the team, he deeply regrets his behaviour and apologised immediately after the match to the opponent. 

The Toyota Cheetahs realise that he is remorseful of his actions and the team accepts the apology. 

The centre, Benhard Janse van Rensburg will be joining the Toyota Cheetahs in Wales, ahead of the clash against Scarlets in Llanelli on Sunday.
