 Shaw was sin-binned on 37 minutes in the Lions win in Johannesburg
|
British and Irish Lions lock Simon Shaw has been cited for dangerous play in the Lions 28-9 victory over South Africa in the third Test.
The Wasps forward was sin-binned for putting his knee into the back of Springboks scrum-half Fourie du Preez.
Australian referee Stuart Dickinson showed Shaw the yellow card in the 37th minute of the game at Ellis Park.
If Shaw is found guilty at a hearing on Sunday he could miss the opening games of next season's Premiership campaign.
Shaw is the second Lions player to be cited on their 10-match South Africa tour - Scotland forward Nathan Hines received a one-week ban for a dangerous tackle during the 13-13 draw against the Emerging Springboks in Cape Town.

Judicial officer Alan Hudson of Canada will meet with Shaw in Johannesburg to determine his punishment.
Hudson is the officer who presided over the citing hearings of South African pair Schalk Burger and Bakkies Botha after the second Test.
Burger was banned for eight weeks by the International Rugby Board for making contact with the eye area of Lions wing Luke Fitzgerald, while Botha was banned for two weeks for dangerous charging which left Lions prop Adam Jones with a dislocated shoulder.
In a controversial move South Africa's players and coaches wore white armbands featuring the word "Justice" during the third Test as a protest against Botha's two-week suspension.
