Cheetahs centre Andries Strauss has been cited for alleged foul play in the Super Rugby match between the Lions and the Cheetahs in Johannesburg on Saturday.
Strauss was shown both a yellow card and a white card for a tip-tackle on Lions forward Wikus van Heerden in the 12th minute of the match by referee Mark Lawrence.
A white card is part of an experimental system being used by SANZAR this season, and puts a player 'on report' for suspected foul play to be referred to a citing commissioner for another look.
The 27-year-old broke law 10.4 (j) by lifting a player from the ground and dropping or driving that player into the ground.
Van Heerden was lifted past the horizontal and driven into the ground head first during the incident.
The citing is to be considered in the first instance by SANZAR Duty Judicial Officer Mike Heron.
