World Rugby has lodged an appeal against the decision to overturn the England captain's red card
said: “In my original planning for the Summer Nations Series and as part of our Rugby World Cup preparation, Owen Farrell was due to be selected to play in this Saturday’s Test match in Dublin.
“However, in light of the fact that so much of Owen’s training and match preparation time this week has been significantly affected and interrupted by the disciplinary process, I have not selected him in the matchday 23. Owen will travel to Ireland with our full support. “Owen understands the situation, but is of course disappointed, as I am, that he is missing such a special game that he would otherwise have played in.”12.
