The Leicester Tigers star learned on Wednesday that the RFUs disciplinary committee had opted to ban him for just two weeks.

That means that rather than being ruled in out of Robinsons plans for the Tests against Canada, South Africa and Australia, Corry is now ready to play a significant role.

Corry was cited for appearing to stamp on an opponent - believed to be former Wales skipper Jonathan Humphreys - during Leicesters English Premiership clash with Bath at Welford Road on October 9.

He pleaded guilty to the offence - which was considered of a reckless and not deliberate nature by an RFU disciplinary panel convened in Coventry - and was handed a 14-day suspension.

His team-mate, hooker George Chuter, was more severely punished.

Chuter was found guilty of stamping during the Bath encounter, with the hapless Humphreys appearing to be the victim once again.

In his case, Chuters actions were found to be reckless rather than intentional, but the front row forward was still hit with a ban which rules him out for six weeks.

He was also ordered to pay £250 costs.

His loss will be keenly felt given that there is a European Cup clash against Biarritz and Premiership appointments with Gloucester and Wasps arriving between now and his return, which is scheduled for December 1.

The 28-year-old is, like Corry, also a member of Englands elite player squad, although he was unlikely to feature for the world champions next month.

Corry will be available to resume playing from November 3, keeping him in contention to win the England number eight jersey for the November Tests against Canada, South Africa and Australia.

However, he will miss out on Leicesters European Cup opener against Calvisano on Saturday and more importantly the crunch showdown with last years semi-finalists Biarritz on October 30.
