CJ Stander's disciplinary hearing has been adjourned after five hours and the Ireland flanker will have to wait to learn his fate on Monday morning in Johannesburg.
The Munster captain was shown a red card by French referee Mathieu Raynal after 22 minutes of Saturday's first Test between Ireland and South Africa.
The touring side recovered from the blow to secure a first away win over the Springboks in their history with a 26-20 victory.
Joe Schmidt has expressed his hope the South African-born 26-year-old will escape a ban for the incident in which he followed through on an attempted charge-down and caught out-half Pat Lambie in the head.
The Springbok No. 10 was stretchered off and will miss Saturday's second Test with concussion. X-rays revealed no further damage.
It now remains to be seen whether Stander will be made available after Australian official Terry Willis called proceedings to a halt. They will resume at 10am on Monday.
