Rugby - disciplinary news:London Irish forward Chris Hala'ufia has been cited for an alleged punch during the Exiles' Heineken Cup clash against Leinster at Twickenham last Saturday. Hala'ufia has been reported by match citing commissioner Jean-Claude Legendre for an alleged strike on Leinster captain Leo Cullen.
He will face a disciplinary hearing in Dublin on Thursday. Irish drew the game 11-11, a result which meant they finished third in their Pool and wrecked their chances of securing a quarter-final place.
Bath’s former England lock Danny Grewcock also faces a hearing for his reckless use of the boot against Ulster.
Grewcock was shown a red card for stamping on Ulster and Ireland flanker Stephen Ferris during Bath’s 28-10 defeat at the Recreation Ground.
In a third disciplinary case to be heard on Thursday, Biarritz and France international secondrow Jerome Thion must answer a charge of allegedly punching Glasgow lock Richie Gray in a Heineken Cup encounter at Parc des Sports Aguilera last Saturday.
