Cian Healy in Paris for disciplinary hearing

The Irish international has been cited for striking an opponent with his knee during Leinster's European Challenge Cup loss to Toulon last Sunday.

Leinster prop Cian Healy is in Paris today where he is attending an independent disciplinary hearing.

The Irish international has been cited for striking opponent Guilhem Guirado with his knee during Leinster's European Challenge Cup loss to Toulon last Sunday.

Healy was sin-binned for the incident in the 26th minute but the Citing Commissioner, John Byett, has decided that the offence deserves further investigation.

If he's found guilty, Healy will be facing a minimum ban of three weeks, although suspensions for striking with the knee can go as high as a year.
