KEY POINTS:
Reds coach Eddie Jones could be banned from Saturday's game against the Blues after becoming the first coach to be cited in Super rugby history.
Tournament officials cited Jones to appear at a judicial hearing tonight in Brisbane to answer a charge of breaching the game's code of conduct in his scathing attack on referee Matt Goddard at the weekend.
Jones faces a fine of up to $10,000, suspension or a warning for his comments that Goddard's decisions against the Reds scrum were "ludicrous" and "disgraceful" in their match with the Brumbies.
Sanzar and ARU chief executive Gary Flowers said officials cited Jones over his comments on radio and in the post-game media conference.
"There was a clear message issued to all teams, coaches and administrators before the start of this Super 14 season that there would be zero tolerance of public criticism of referees and officials," Flowers said.
"Statistics out today [show] fewer average penalties, scrum resets and free kicks per game in this year's Super 14 than in the previous two years, so complaints referees are penalising teams out of the game don't stand up."
