PARIS (AP) Former New Zealand players Dan Carter and Joe Rokocoko and their Racing 92 teammate Juan Imhoff have been cleared of wrongdoing by the French Rugby Federation after traces of corticosteroids were found in their urine samples.

In a statement Tuesday, the French club says ''the FFR's medical commission has lifted the doubts that were weighing on the medical practices of Racing 92,'' adding that ''Racing 92 and its players have been cleared of all doubt.''

Their hearing took place last week after the FFR opened a disciplinary case.

Racing 92 denied that Carter, Rokocoko and Imhoff- a star winger for Argentina - breached anti-doping rules.

The club said the trio had received treatment days before the June 24 final and in full compliance with national and international anti-doping rules.
