Joe Marler has reiterated an apology to Jake Heenan, his Harlequins team-mates and the club after he was suspended for comments made towards the Bristol forward.

Quins and England prop Marler was hit with a Rugby Football Union charge for conduct prejudicial to the game. He made an offensive remark about Heenan’s ill mother during a Gallagher Premiership game last month.
