TRIBUNAL
Charges Laid:
Nathan Eagleton (WB), striking Docker Chris Tarrant: assessed as intentional conduct (three points), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points), equaling six activation points, a Level Three offense, 225 demerits, and a two game suspension. He has 45 demerits carried over from within the last 12 months, increasing his penalty to 270 demerits. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25% to 202.50 demerits, still a two game suspension.
The club decided to challenge the charge but was given an extra day to submit their request due to computer and phone problems. The trouble was due to some offices being moved as part of the facilities' redevelopment. The hearing will take place next week due to the Bulldogs off on holiday for the midseason break.
Michael Wilson (PA), Essendon's striking Henry Slattery: assessed as reckless conduct (two points), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points), equaling five activation points, a Level Two offense, 125 demerits and a one game suspension. His five year clean record reduces the penalty 25% 93.75 demerits and a reprimand. He accepted, reducing the penalty a further 25% 70.31 demerits and a reprimand with the demerits held over toward his future record.
David Hille (ESS), rough conduct against Port Adelaide's Chad Cornes: assessed as negligent conduct (one point), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points), equaling four points, a Level One offense, 125 demerits and one game suspension. He has an existing poor record of three games suspended in the last three years, increasing the penalty 30% to 162.50 demerits and a one game suspension. He accepted, reducing the penalty 25% to 121.88 demerits and a one game suspension.
