The 27-year-old will only miss two Super Rugby matches, away against the Waratahs (April 16) and home to the Canterbury Crusaders (April 24), as the Canberra-based side have a bye this coming weekend.
"With respect to sanction, I deemed the act of foul play merited a low-end entry point of two weeks," (governing body) SANZAAR duty judicial officer Adam Cassleden said in a statement on Tuesday.
"I then added one week for aggravation due to the need to deter this type of dangerous foul play. The player is free to resume playing on April 25."
