Rugby star in court on assault charge
ENGLAND rugby star Lesley Vainikolo yesterday denied attacking a man outside a nightclub.
Vainikolo, 30, from Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, pleaded not guilty at Bristol Crown Court to causing grievous bodily harm and will stand trial in September. He was charged following an incident in Bath on 26 October last year, after which a man was taken to hospital with head injuries.
