Henson cited after Tigers clashes
Wales and Lions centre Gavin Henson has been cited for two alleged incidents of foul play during Sunday's Heineken Cup match against Leicester Tigers.
Henson has been charged with elbowing Tigers prop Alejandro Moreno, leaving the Italian with a broken nose, and for aiming a kick at his opponent.
Ospreys team-mate Ian Evans has also been reported by citing commissioner Bill Dunlop for kicking Harry Ellis.
The disciplinary hearing will be held on Friday, 23 December.
If found guilty by the European Rugby Cup disciplinary committee, both Henson and Wales squad lock Evans face lengthy bans that could rule them out of the start of the Six Nations.
Evans' kick at Harry Ellis left the England scrum-half with possible cruciate ligament damage.
Neither Tigers coach Pat Howard nor Ospreys coach Lyn Jones would comment on either incidents immediately after the game.
But of the Henson incident, Jones did say: "Last week Gavin had his head stamped on and there was no citing so I don't foresee repercussions."
The controversial Liberty Stadium encounter followed a full-blooded encounter at Welford Road the previous week and a bitter build-up where the Ospreys accused their opponents of cheating.
Henson, 23, has had just two games back since recovering from his groin injury.
Wales coach Mike Ruddock will be desperate for his star inside centre to be available for the Six Nations opener against England at Twickenham on 4 February.
Evans, 21, was a shock call-up to the Wales squad in the autumn following Brent Cockbain's injury.
After Luke Charteris also joined the Wales casualty list, Evans sat on the bench for the Tests with South Africa and Australia.
He did not get on, but Ruddock has spoken highly of the youngster.
Evans made his Heineken Cup debut at Welford Road and impressed in the two Leicester encounters, taking ball off the Tigers' feared line-out.

And what news of the Leicester stamper from Welford Road? Yeah, that's right. They play for an Establishment club so they get f*** all punishment.
ERC.
Establishment Rogering c***s.
Henson, however, did not accidentally elbow Moreno in the face, and certainly did not accidentally try and kick him as he fell to the floor.Â
Incidentally, how the hell did Henson managed to miss a kick at an enormous Italian prop, appoximately 6 inches away from him, who to use a bit of Ronglish was gong down in installments?[/b]
