Sport Ireland still to decide if it will appeal James Cronin doping violation ban

James Cronin in action against Racing 92 last November.

Sport Ireland are still reviewing the James Cronin doping violation decision and have yet to decide whether they will appeal his one-month suspension to the Court of Arbitration in Sport. They have until May 11 to decide one way or another.

Cronin and Munster both accepted the decision made by the independent judicial officer to declare him ineligible between April 15 and May 16 after he tested positive for prednisolone and prednisone following Munster’s Heineken Champions Cup match against Racing 92 in November.
