That is yet to be confirmed though and is under investigation by both the Welsh Rugby Union and the police after an official citing complaint was made.br /br /What we do know is that it’s a sad day for rugby and the great Quinnell family who have served their country so well. To them, we wish all the best and hope that Gavin is able to restore some kind of normality to his life in the very near future.br /br /Moody on the other hand didn’t receive an eye-gouge or a stamp, in fact what looks to have happened is that during the collision with Sharples, his own hand or thumb impacted with his eye causing a lot of distress at the time. A scan revealed that it isn’t as severe as it could have been.br /br /"Much better news than first thought. Back in action soon. Phew!" he tweeted.br /br /He will miss this weekend’s Heineken Cup opener and will be in a race to get fit for England’s game against the All Blacks in a month’s time.br /br /span style="font-style: italic;"You can view highlights of the Bath vs Gloucester game, as well as all the others, via the Aviva Premiership e-player on the sidebar.
