Poppy Cleall will miss England's Six Nations opener against Italy after admitting using foul language.

The 31-year-old admitted a charge of conduct prejudicial to the interests of the game in Sunday's 54-19 Premiership Women's Rugby win over Leicester

Cleall said although she did not direct her comments at the referee, the official could have felt they were.

She will miss Sunday's league game with Bristol and England's clash with Italy on 24 March in Parma.
