Schmidt doesn't blame ref over Ryan stamp

Joe Schmidt has exonerated referee JP Doyle from any blame over Georgia flanker Viktor Kolelisvhili’s unpunished stamp on Ireland debutant Dominic Ryan’s face.

Kolelisvhili is expected to receive a citing after stamping on Leinster back-rower Ryan’s face during Ireland’s 49-7 win over the Lelos in Dublin today.
