SWINDON have been hit by a 28-day ban for Croatian star Jurica Pavlic for withholding his services.

Pavlic missed the 54-39 win over Coventry after returning to his homeland.

Robins co-promoter Gary Patchett said: “It's obvious that we have to do some serious talking within the next 28 days. I spoke to Jurica and told him how disappointed I was and how badly let down I felt.”
