Picamoles dropped for mocking referee
Last updated on .From the section Rugby Union
Number eight Louis Picamoles has been dropped from France's squad for next week's Six Nations match against Scotland for disrespecting a referee.
The forward appeared to mockingly applaud Alain Rolland after the referee sent him to the sin-bin against Wales.
He also gave a thumbs-up gesture as he left the pitch during Friday's 27-6 loss to the reigning champions.
Coach Philippe Saint-Andre said: "Certain attitudes have no place whatsoever in our sport."
