Bath second-row Danny Grewcock, London Irish number eight Chris Hala'ufia and Biarritz forward Jerome Thion have all been cited following Round Six of the Heineken Cup.

Hala'ufia has been reported by match citing commissioner Jean-Claude Legendre for an alleged strike on Leinster skipper Leo Cullen during last Saturday's meeting at Twickenham.

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 forward Grewcock will also face a Dublin hearing on the same day.

Grewcock was sent off for stamping on Ulster flanker Stephen Ferris during Bath's 28-10 Heineken Cup defeat at the Recreation Ground three days ago.

In a third case on Thursday, Biarritz's France international second-row Thion must answer a charge of allegedly punching Glasgow lock Richie Gray in a Heineken Cup encounter at Parc des Sports Aguilera last Saturday.
