Auckland players Paul Williams and Winston Stanley will appear before the rugby judiciary for separate incidents in the provincial match against Canterbury last Saturday.
They were cited by citing commissioner Mike O'Leary for allegedly charging into an opponent without the ball - Stanley on Ryan Crotty in the 46th minute of the match, and Williams for a charge on Dan Carter in the 76th minute.
The citings were yesterday reviewed by citing complaints review officer Roger Drummond, who decided both incidents should proceed to hearings.
Williams and Stanley will appear at separate hearings before a New Zealand Rugby Union judicial officer in Wellington tomorrow.
Auckland lost the match 22-16 at Eden Park, with recalled All Black first five-eighths Carter contributing all of Canterbury's points.
