Richmond pair Dustin Martin and Shane Edwards have again been offered fines by the AFL's Match Review Officer following Saturday afternoon's 28-point win over St Kilda at the MCG.
Martin, who was fined back in Round 6 for making contact with an umpire, has been charged with misconduct against Saint Jimmy Webster in the first term of the Round 10 win, and offered a $1500 sanction with an early plea.
Edwards has been charged with striking St Kilda's Hunter Clark in the final quarter of Saturday's win.
If he accepts the charge, it will be his second classified offence of the season, after he was fined for engaging in rough conduct against Neville Jetta in the Round 5 win over Melbourne.
In 2018, the base sanction for a third minor offence is an $8000 fine, rather than a suspension as in previous seasons.
Both Martin and Edwards will be available for Saturday night's Dreamtime at the 'G clash against Essendon at the MCG.
In other related MRO news, St Kilda's Jake Carlisle has been offered a two-game ban for striking Jack Riewoldt in the opening minutes of Saturday's clash.
Riewoldt left the ground concussed and took no further part in the game.
