Cited August may miss Cardiff showpiece

BIARRITZ hooker and captain Benoit August could miss the Heineken Cup final against Munster after being cited for allegedly gouging Bath lock Danny Grewcock during Saturday’s semi-final victory in San Sebastian.

Television pictures appeared to show August with his fingers close to Grewcock’s eyes in a maul just before half-time.

Grewcock played down the incident, but it has been reported by citing commissioner John West of Ireland.
