SixNations officials have confirmed to the Irish Rugby Football Union that none of a number of referrals made by South Africa against Ireland players have been upheld by the independent citing commissioner that was present at the game between Ireland and South Africa in Croke Park on Saturday 28 November.
The Ireland management say that they are “very disappointed” that the name of an Ireland player was subsequently associated with eye gouging in the media as a result of one of these “unsubstantiated referrals”.
South Africa claimed that Jamie Heaslip had been involved in an eye-gouging incident with Springbok flanker Heinrich Brussow in the first half of Saturday’s Test.
The Springboks had issued a request to match citing commissioner Douglas Hunter to investigate their claims after lodging a complaint within the specified 12 hours from the final whistle of the match.
Hunter then had 48 hours to decide whether or not to cite any player but found that there was no wrongdoing.
The Ireland management issued a statement saying that they fully support and believe in the integrity of the citing process in place but believe that any referrals in this process should be made only when they are material and substantial.
The Ireland management stated that they will be making no further comment and consider the matter closed.

Hello RT’s, howzit?
Irish, in case you missed me after the game, congrats barrister, your team played great and made Eyre proud.
Well done mate, no complaints from Pietman, you were better and sharper than us.
Me?
I am sitting on the porch, sipping a beer, looking at the ocean…..wondering if my busted knee would make it thru, swollen like a melon it is, after this morning’s beach run….eishhh, maybe I am getting too old for this shyte, the heart is there, the knees ain’t…..perhaps I should move over to the pub and moer them locals at pool rather (my wife’s advice), hobbling around the pool table beats jogging by far.
But anyways, life is good…..
Tripps.

Hello Pietman, you have been missed 🙂 how you going to run that long race with hurt knee.
Rather do the Argus, the hub did it a couple of years back, he borrowed a mountain bike from a friend, did not train even 1 km did it with my father and brother inlaw. Only complaint was a very sore bum afterwards. He did it cause of a bet that it was easy and you didnt have train for it. He was right. 🙄
