From the Western Daily Press (and thanks to Giles Can't Drink from the Oddshaped place for spotting it!)

Two England rugby stars were disciplined by their club for missing a training session after they partied the night away with Royals - including Princes William and Harry, it emerged yesterday. Henry Paul, 31, and Peter Richards, 27, were among guests at a boozy birthday bash thrown for their team-mate, England World Cup star Mike Tindall, by his Royal girlfriend Zara Phillips at Princess Anne's Gatcombe Park.

It has also emerged two other guests at the party were involved in a fracas.

Guests took part in mock sumo wrestling, and rode a bucking bronco machine. The sporting stars at the boisterous gathering include top jockey Frankie Dettori. The morning after the fun and frolics Gloucester players were due at a "recovery session" at their Kingsholm base and all the party guests, including Tindall, attended - except for England Squad scrum-half Richards and former Bradford Bulls rugby league star Paul, who plays fly-half and centre.

Richards had stayed overnight at Gatcombe Park and Paul missed the club session because he decided to travel North to meet his brother Robbie - 29 year old Bradford Bulls captain - to celebrate the League side's 15-6 Grand Final win against Leeds.

Now the pair are in disgrace after being summoned to a club disciplinary inquiry.

Their punishment for missing the recovery session - which followed their 16-18 defeat at Tindall's former club Bath last Saturday - is to be dropped from the Gloucester squad going to France this weekend for a European Challenge Cup match with Bayonne.

Club spokesman Alastair Downey said the pair had been told of the reasons for the club's action.

A club insider said being dropped from the squad to go to France was "a real slap in the face".
