In hot water: Nathan Hines
Clermont lock Nathan Hines and Glasgow wing Tommy Seymour have been cited for stamping and a dangerous tackle respectively.
Former Scotland international Hines could be banned for between two to 52 weeks if found guilty for allegedly trampling on Scarlets wing Morgan Stoddart during his team's Heineken Cup win at Stade Marcel Michelin on Saturday.
Seymour, meanwhile, is alleged to have carried out a dangerous tackle on Northampton Saints wing Vas Artemyev during the second half of Glasgow's loss at Franklin's Gardens.

Attwood and Cudmore are psycho scumbags, in the vein of Danny Grewcock. Basically lads who realised that they were bigger than everyone else years ago and decided to punch their way through life. I'd gladly kick them out of the sport.
Hines and Botha are just hot heads who see themselves as "enforcers" and play the role. I don't think they're innately "dirty players".
Anyway, a good long ban would sort some of this nonsense out.
Clermont will still make the final.

Hmmmm a red card on each side would have made the game more interesting n'est-ce pas?! Rematch in Llanelli could be v. interesting.

Clermont have the most violent locking combo in the world between Hines and Cudmore. If only Attwood and Bakkies could be united to engage them what a show of brutality we might witness.

Glad he was cited. Big ban for the ref too - couldn't have missed the obvious!
