Former Ireland international Chris Farrell has been sacked by French club Oyonnax following his conviction last month.
Farrell, 31, received a four-year sentence, with two years suspended, for failure to prevent a rape crime.
The court was told County Tyrone-born Farrell would not be sent to prison but would have to wear an electronic tag for two years and remain in France.
At the trial at Bordeaux’s Cour d’Asisses, former Ireland Under-20 international Denis Coulson was sentenced to 14 years in prison after he was found guilty of the rape of a woman in Bordeaux in 2017.
The two men were on trial with three other rugby players. All five men were once team-mates together at FC Grenoble.
Loick Jammes, 30, from France, was found guilty of rape and given a 14-year sentence.
Rory Grice, 34, from New Zealand, was found guilty of rape and given a 12-year sentence.
Fellow New Zealander 30-year-old Dylan Hayes was given a two-year suspended sentence for failure to prevent a crime.
