England wing Mark Cueto is free to play in Saturday's second test against Australia after he was cited and then had the charges dismissed.
Cueto attended a disciplinary hearing along with team manager Martin Johnson and elite rugby director Rob Andrew.
"It is was good news that Mark got off his citing this morning," Johnson told the Telegraph.
England dominated Australia in the scrums but lost the match 27-17 and England scrum coach Graham Rowntree backed Johnson as the right man for the job and insisted that a "breakthrough victory" in Sydney would do wonders for the team.
"I have got every faith in him," said Rowntree, who played with Johnson for Leicester and England.
"He is a mate and I trust him. I trust his rugby knowledge. He is good with people. He is the right man for the job.
"He gets a couple of wins under his belt and everyone will be saying the same.
"We can't hide from the fact we are not getting those wins but we can't stop trying.
"I can't think of the last occasion that a team scored two penalty tries and lost.
"How do you think we feel after last night? We had a chance there with all their injuries. We are gutted.
"I believe we are still progressing. That team that won the World Cup in 2003 was not perfect for a long time.
"You ask Jonny Wilkinson when the switch was flicked that made England a World Cup-winning team - it was winning in Wellington, winning in Melbourne and at Lansdowne Road a few months earlier.
"We are desperate for that (breakthrough) win."
