Flanker Schalk Burger has been reported for allegedly making contact with the eye area of Lions wing Luke Fitzgerald.

Lock Bakkies Botha, meanwhile, has been reported for a dangerous charge on Lions prop Adam Jones early in the second half.

Both players must now attend hearings in Pretoria tomorrow, when they could be banned ahead of next Saturday’s third Test against the Lions in Johannesburg.
