Tonight's rugby news as Ireland star cited for brutal All Blacks incident and former Welsh scrum-half dies

Here are the latest rugby headlines on Monday, July 18.

Ireland prop Andrew Porter has been cited following the incident which broke Brodie Retallick's cheekbone in the Test series decider against New Zealand on Saturday.

Porter escaped a red for the upright 53rd-minute tackle against the lock, which resulted in a clash of heads before the All Blacks second-row was removed from the field for a head injury assessment (which he failed). It was later confirmed he had suffered a broken cheekbone.

After receiving just a yellow card from referee Wayne Barnes, Porter will now face a disciplinary hearing on Tuesday, July 19, and could be slapped with a ban.

The incident sparked anger among fans in New Zealand and elsewhere, with many believing a red card should have been issued. Despite the severity of the injury, Porter was only shown a yellow because Barnes judged he had only "absorbed" the tackle, reducing the force of it.

A World Rugby statement said: "Ireland prop Andrew Porter will attend an independent disciplinary hearing after having been cited by the citing commissioner James Sherriff (Australia) for an act of foul play contrary to Law 9.13 (A player must not tackle an opponent early, late or dangerously) during Ireland’s test match against New Zealand on 16 July. The player will attend a hearing via video link before an independent Judicial Committee chaired by Adam Casselden SC (Australia), joined by former international player Stefan Terblanche (South Africa) and former international coach Frank Hadden (Scotland)."

Cardiff Rugby has paid tribute to former scrum-half Gary Samuel following his death. Samuel represented the Blue and Blacks for a decade, between 1965 and 1976, making 112 first team appearances and
