A three-person panel deemed he had breached Law 9.12 (A player must not strike with any part of the arm, shoulder, head or knee(s)).

France won the match 35-16 to claim the Six Nations title.

After the match, Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend questioned why Mauvaka was able to return to to the pitch, with the officials at the time deeming the challenge not to have great force.

But Townsend pointed out force was irrelevant because it was an off-the-ball incident, not an errant tackle.

Mauvaka will miss Toulouse's Top 14 games against Bordeaux and Pau, as well as the Champions Cup last-16 tie with Sale Sharks.
