Jerry Flannery and Raphael Ibanez are handed citings

Jerry Flannery and Raphael Ibanez are free to play until the hearings are held

Flannery and Ibanez are major concerns for Saturday's crunch Heineken Cup match at Thomond Park.

The duo have been cited for alleged stamping but event organisers European Rugby Cup would not confirm when the disciplinary hearings will take place.

Flannery must answer a charge after an incident involving Clermont back-rower Julien Bonnaire on Sunday.

And Ibanez is cited after a clash with Scarlets flanker Simon Easterby.

Both players are free to play until the hearings are held.

The eagerly-anticipated contest at Thomond Park is a massive game for both clubs with the winner sealing a place in the quarter-finals.
