Munster's flanker Denis Leamy faces a disciplinary hearing in London tomorrow after an alleged stamping incident in the game against Italy last Saturday.

Leamy's international colleague, Ireland captain Brian O'Driscoll was also under scrutiny for alleged stamping but match commissioner Rob Flockhart only saw reason to cite the Munster man.

In the aftermath of the game Italian coach Pierre Berbizier complained about stamping incidents while his captain Marco Bortolami was more fortright "I don't know if Brian O'Driscoll will be cited but I hope he is because he deserves to be," said the Italian skipper.

"He clearly stamped on Fabio's Ongaro head when the ball was not there. That is not acceptable. He does not need to do this. He is a great player but he has let himself down and he should be punished accordingly."

However, Flockhart felt O'Driscoll had no case to answer but Leamy will have to make the trip to London tomorrow
