Lauaki, Stoltz cited

Johannesburg - Chiefs No 8 Sione Lauaki and Lions lock Willem Stoltz will appear before a SANZAR judicial committee on Saturday after being cited for foul play following Friday’s Super 14 match between the teams in Johannesburg.

Lauaki was cited under Law 10.4 (j) for lifting Lions centre Deon van Rensburg in a tackle in the 13th minute of the first half and not lowering the player safely back to the ground. Lauaki received a yellow card from referee Marius Jonker for the offence.

Stoltz was cited under Law 10.4 (a) for striking Chiefs hooker Aled de Malmanche in the face area with his elbow in the ninth minute. Stoltz was penalised and warned by the referee.

The Chiefs won the match 72-65.

Hearings for both players will take place before Advocate Jannie Lubbe at the Johannesburg Stadium at 11:00 on Saturday.
