The full MRP charge

“Based on the available video evidence and a medical report from the Gold Coast Suns Football Club, the incident was assessed as careless conduct with low impact to the body. The incident was classified as a $1500 sanction. The player has no applicable record which impacts the penalty. An early plea enables the player to accept a $1000 sanction.”
