Stade Francais second-row David Auradou and hooker Fabrice Landreau have been cited to appear tomorrow before the European Rugby Cup Limited (ERC) disciplinary commission in Dublin.
The two were originally cited along with outhalf Diego Dominguez, following a tumultuous European Cup match against Swansea on October 14th which the Welsh side won 18-16 but the ERC ruled Swansea had not complied with tournament regulations in their citing procedure. In contrast two cases brought by Stade Francais against two Swansea players were properly lodged and the committee last week found against Swansea's Garin Jenkins, ruling he was guilty of reckless play at a ruck.
Stade Francais president Max Guazzini said the ERC had decided to go ahead with the cases after seeing a video of the match. "It's the first time they have acted like that - it's scandalous," he said.
"I think next year we may have to set conditions for the participation of French clubs," he added.
