Luke Cowan-Dickie's Red Card Drama: Cleared for Australia Test

The England rugby team has received a boost as hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie has been cleared for the upcoming November test match against Australia. This decision follows the overturning of his red card received at the club level.

An independent panel carefully reviewed video footage of the alleged dangerous tackle, which initially led to Cowan-Dickie's sending-off. After considering all evidence, the panel concluded that the red card was unwarranted.

England is set to host Australia at Twickenham on November 1 during the Autumn Nations Series, followed by matches against Fiji, New Zealand, and Argentina.
