O’Brien Faces Disciplinary Hearing
The Irish Rugby Football Union Disciplinary Panel will hold a hearing to consider a citing complaint against Sean O’Brien from the Benetton Treviso v Leinster Magners League game, which was played last Saturday at Stadio di Monigo.
Leinster back rower Sean O’Brien has been cited under law 10.4 (l) for allegedly making contact with the eye area of a Benetton Treviso player in the 62nd minute of the game.
The hearing will take place in the Ulster Branch offices, Ravenhill, at 5pm on Wednesday (September 22).
The hearing will be chaired by Harry McKibbin. He will be assisted by Stephen Hilditch and Neil Jackson.
O’Brien was cited by the independent citing commissioner who was present at the game. The findings of the Disciplinary Panel will be released following the completion of the hearing.
