Cape Town - Western Province flanker Schalk Burger was cleared on technical grounds after facing a disciplinary hearing in Cape Town on Tuesday.
Burger was cited after being ordered from the field following two yellow card incidents in Saturday's Absa Currie Cup match in Bloemfontein on Saturday.
Committee chairperson Willem Gaum ruled that a player could not be cited for an incident after having been ordered from the field in such circumstances.
Due to this technicality the chairperson ruled that Burger had no case to answer.
