Tom Youngs cited after Leicester's derby win over Wasps
By Online Editors
Leicester skipper Tom Youngs has been cited by independent match commissioner Andy Blyth following last Saturday’s Gallagher Premiership win over Wasps.
The Tigers hooker will appear before an independent disciplinary panel on Tuesday after allegedly punching or striking Wasps' Will Rowlands in the 53rd minute of the league encounter at Welford Road.
The independent panel will comprise Jeremy Summers (chair), with Nick Garling and one other panel member to be confirmed.
Leicester full-back Telusa Veainu had been the star of a dour 18-9 victory.
With the game in the balance, the Tongan capitalised on poor handling from the visitors to run 90 metres and complete a miserable week for Wasps, during which Dai Young stood down after nine years at the helm as director of rugby.

Can you stop with the xenophobia?
Go to commentsYeah, they’re not firing on all cylinders. But they’re going in to each game for the win and pulling it off 11/13 times for this past year. After an 85% season last year.
Based on my calculations - No other team has had two seasons in a row of 85% or better in the last 6 years. Not even Ireland.
