Oh no that would be really horrible for such a gracious and humble character.
On the downside, if he does miss the RWC, we'll miss some classic anti-Sexton jibes...

"Devastating" - Johnny Sexton learns how long his ban could be... - Ruck
Johnny Sexton may potentially face disciplinary action for his actions following Leinster’s heartbreaking loss to La Rochelle in the Champions Cup final at Aviva Stadium. According to a report from…
While the maximum punishment for such an offense could extend up to five years, it is believed to be improbable in this case.
Five years would be hilarious.

Lots of presumably Irish people on FB trying to downplay his actions and blame Peyper for being shit. But you know you have overstepped when they are saying he was nowhere near as bad as Rassie
It doesn't really matter who the player is or if the Ref is shit. Players & coaches who carry on like this need a good kicking. I'd have some sympathy if Sexton had apologised - heat of the moment and all that - but if he has, I've missed it.

@Crucial what would be best is if they banned him for whatever number of weeks it would be for him to be free to play in the RWC final...
But we know it wont be anything too bad for the poor fella.

We also don't want to have to hear Irish whinging for ever and a day over how they would have won the Cup if not for persecution of Sexton.
This would inevitably come after their customary quarterfinal departure. -
