6. DISCIPLINE

6.1 Where reasonably practicable, a player shown a red card will have his case heard within seven days of the relevant match.

6.2 EPCR will appoint a Citing Commissioner for each match. The Citing Commissioner will be entitled to cite a player for any acts of Foul Play that warranted the player being shown a red card. Clubs will not have the power to cite a player but may refer incidents to the Citing Commissioner within 26 hours of the start of the match. The Citing Commissioner will have 50 hours from the start of the match to submit a citing complaint to EPCR, although this deadline may be extended in certain circumstances. EPCR may refer the complaint to a Citing Officer (also referred to as a ‘Gatekeeper’) to determine whether it should proceed. The case will then proceed to a disciplinary hearing.

Haven’t heard anything yet so doesn’t look like anything will be investigated

A Red Card automatically leads to a disciplinary 'meeting'. Immelman was dismissed for a dangerous tackle to the head which has an entry level of at least 6 weeks. It does not need the citing commisioner's input, as far as I know, as the referee submits a report to the authorities. The citing commisioner deals with missed dismeanours and yellows that should potentially have been a red.

I was thinking more of Tom Wood incident when I put this up. If he has been cited ,as per Raggs ,seems a bite late.

Certainly reduces the scope for dispute. Hopefully the refs will be more on point next time.

I now work on the premise that if it's not Hamish Smales it's ok.

3 weeks for Wood and Immelman. 4 for Du Preez.

I really wish the "authorities" would get real with punishments. Plead guilty, stroke your cat four times a day and help an old lady across the road and we will cut your sentence. Rubbish.
