Quade Cooper will miss the Reds Super Rugby qualifying playoff against the Sharks after he was suspended for one week for a high tackle on Berrick Barnes.

A SANZAR Judicial Hearing has found Cooper guilty after he was cited for last weekend’s match.

Cooper has been suspended for one week so he could play for the Reds in the semifinal if the Reds manage to beat the Sharks this weekend.

The Reds will host the Sharks at 9:40pm while the Crusaders meet the Bulls at 7:35pm. Both matches will be played on Saturday.
