One match ban for Jackson
Richmond midfielder Daniel Jackson has been offered a one-week suspension by the AFL’s Match Review Panel.
Jackson was charged after an AFL investigation with a Level One engaging in rough conduct offence against West Coast’s Scott Selwood, during the first quarter of yesterday’s match against West Coast.
In summary, due to his previous poor record, his one-match sanction must remain at one game, even with an early plea.
The incident was assessed as negligent conduct (one point), low impact (one point) and body contact (one point).
This is a total of three activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level One offence, drawing 125 demerit points and a one-match sanction.
He has an existing bad record of six matches suspended within the last three years, increasing the penalty by 50 per cent to 187.50 points. He also has 72.04 demerit points carried over from within the last 12 months, increasing the penalty to 259.54 points and a two-match sanction. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to 194.66 points and a one-match sanction.blog comments powered by Disqus
