SCRUM-HALF Jonny Arr will miss the Championship play-off finals should Worcester Warriors get there.

He pleaded guilty to an RFU disciplinary charge tonight and handed a three-week ban.

The legs of the play-off final are scheduled for May 20 and May 27.

Arr is free to play again on May 28. 

The news is a major blow for Warriors, particuarly after Charlie Mulchrone limped from the field after injuring an ankle in the early stages of Saturday's 27-22 first leg win at London Scottish.

Arr had been charged with committing a tip tackle, contrary to Law 10.4(j), during  the same match and, at the time, was shown a yellow card.

Cavaliers skipper Jean-Baptiste Bruzulier is expected to wear the number nine jersey in Friday's play-off semi-final second leg against Scottish at Sixways (7.45pm).

The RFU disciplinary panel comprised of Adrienne Lucking QC and Tony Wheat.
