He made contact with Ireland fullback Tiernan O'Halloran in the 11th minute of the match, as they both leapt in the air for a high ball, causing the Irish player to somersault and land heavily on his upper body and head.

Le Roux was given a temporary suspension [yellow card] for the offence by referee Glen Jackson.

The hearing will take place in Port Elizabeth and be heard by Judicial Officer, Terry Willis, of Australia.
