Citing may sideline Horan

MUNSTER prop Marcus Horan could miss part of Ireland's autumn Test programme after a citing complaint was filed against him.

In a dramatic development yesterday, an hour after Munster complained Richard Mustoe to the ERC, the Ospreys surprisingly countered by naming Horan as the aggressor in an incident which took place in Munster's 20-18 HeinekenCup win at The Gnoll on Sunday.

It is not clear just yet why the Ospreys have brought citing charges against Horan, but the Ireland prop has much more to lose should any evidence be found against him.
