Blues loose forward Steven Luatua has been suspended for three weeks after pleading guilty to a tip tackle on Brodie Retallick during his side's 41-34 loss to the Chiefs in Albany during the weekend - but he won't miss a game.
Luatua entered an early guilty plea, which cut the suspension from six to three weeks after he was shown a yellow and white card for his actions.
The Blues are bottom of the Super Rugby standings following the loss, their 12th from 14 games this season and have a bye when Super Rugby resumes later this month so they won't play again until July 7, against the Force.
