BRENDAN VENTER has turned down a cheeky plea from his players to dress as club mascot Sarrie the Camel to beat his ban from tomorrow's sold-out Guinness Premiership final against Leicester.

Venter was offered this "fool proof" ruse after training yesterday and while he applauded their ingenuity, the director of rugby is resigned to watching the biggest game of his first year in charge from the comfort of the family home in St Albans, where he will be babysitting his five-year-old son, Joshua. Venter is stuck at home while wife Anneme, his other son Brendan and daughter Esna are at Twickenham because he was found guilty by the Rugby Football Union of "conduct Replica Prada Handbags prejudicial to the interests of the union and the game" following incidents with Leicester supporters in the main stand at Welford Road on 8 'I have in my coaches May.

His ban was reduced on appeal from 14 to 10 weeks but the end result was still the same -- he cannot be anywhere near Twickenham stadium tomorrow.

it would senseless send messages them the Venter also confirmed he will not be in mobile phone contact with his fellow Sarries coaches in the Twickenham stands, insisting it would be an unwanted distraction during a final he still cannot believe he is missing. Brendan Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho famously beat his ban from the touchline for the 2005 Champions League quarter-final with Bayern Munich by using a laundry basket so he could be sneaked out of the dressing room and there were also claims he was feeding instructions via mobile phone to his staff but Venter insists he won't be following suit. "I don't want to interfere with the train of thought of the coaches who are going to be there," said Venter. "I won't be of any help making comments from in front of my television when they are going to be getting the real feel of the match, the ebb and flow. It would be senseless to send any messages to them. I told the players dressing up as the camel was a great idea and maybe I could have tackled the Northampton mascot without anyone knowing it was me.

"I am still very disappointed the appeal hearing didn't reduce my ban to one match and allowed me to attend the final. I asked them at the appeal to explain what I did wrong but I still don't know so how can I stop doing the same thing next time?" The rest of the coaching team will now assume control tomorrow, headed by Mark McCall along with Andy Farrell, Alex Sanderson and Paul Gustard. No one at Sarries envisaged this group would have to assume the lead role so quickly against a Leicester side making their seventh appearance in the Premiership final.

Venter has complete faith in his men and will join them for dinner after the match at central London restuarant -- win or lose. He added: "Normally, I would be on the coach and then talk to the players before we have a walk through on the pitch.

My not being there is not going to affect our preparations and I have faith in my fellow coaches who have done a fantastic job this season."

Venter The Venter row has overshadowed a brilliant final surge into the final by Sarries, who won twice at Northampton -- including the semi-final -- and recorded a first Chloe Replica win in 33 attempts at Leicester with a brand of attacking rugby.
