Report: Patrick Ryder (Ess) was charged with a Level Two engaging in rough conduct offence against Patrick Dangerfield (Ade) in Q3. Ryder was offered a one-match suspension with an early plea. The incident was assessed as negligent conduct (one point), medium impact (two points) and high contact (two points). This is a total of five activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Two offence, drawing 225 demerit points and a two-match sanction. He has no existing good or bad record. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to 168.75 points and a one-match sanction. Essendon sought the adjudication of the Tribunal. On Tuesday night the case was successfully argued to the Tribunal that the force applied when shepherding was not unreasonable in the circumstances, and that any contact to the head was merely an accident after initial force was shoulder to shoulder. The Tribunal cleared Ryder of the charge. 2009 — ROUND 12 — GAME 5 Adelaide v North Melbourne Sunday, June 14, 2009 Football Park, 4.40pm AEST; crowd: 30,173 Conditions: Wet, following morning and afternoon rain Weather: 11C, rain; lights on from start   1/4 time 1/2 time 3/4 time Final ADE 2.4-16 (16) 3.6-24 (16) 5.9-39 (22) 9.14-68 (44) NM 0.0-0 1.2-8 2.5-17 3.6-24 Goals: Adelaide: Jason Porplyzia 3, Chris Knights, Tyson Edwards, Nathan Bock, Kurt Tippett, Taylor Walker, Bernie Vince.

Reports: Barry Hall (Syd), charged with a Level Three striking offence against Ben Rutten (Ade) in Q3. Hall's poor record meant his penalty increased to a three-game suspension, or with an early plea he can accept a two-match punishment. The incident was assessed as intentional conduct (three points), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points). This is a total of six activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Three offence, drawing 225 demerit points and a two-match sanction. He has a total of eight matches suspended within the last three years, increasing the penalty by 50 per cent to 337.50 points. He also has 57.50 points carried over from within the last 12 months, increasing the penalty to 395 points and a three-match sanction. An early plea reduces the sanction by 25 per cent to 296.25 points and a two-match sanction. The Sydney club accepted the early plea. Hall admitted guilt and accepted the MRP penalty of a two-match suspension. Jesse White (Syd) for striking Bernie Vince (Ade) was assessed. The MRP noted that White’s hand made contact with Vince’s knee as the Adelaide player kicked the ball. The contact caused White’s hand to ricochet upwards, making accidental high contact. No further action was taken. Heath Grundy (Syd) for striking Nathan Bock (Ade) was assessed. The MRP noted that Grundy’s open hand clipped Bock’s face as the Adelaide player marked the ball. The action was not seen as a striking motion and was deemed to be an attempt to spoil the mark.

The incident was assessed as reckless conduct (two points), medium impact (two points) and body contact (one point). This is a total of five activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Two offence, drawing 225 demerit points and a two-match sanction. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to 168.75 points and a one- match sanction. St Kilda sought the adjudication of the Tribunal. At the sitting on Tuesday night the Tribunal after a deliberation of some 30 minutes confirmed the MRP judgement and suspended Dawson for two matches. Justin Koschitzke (StK) was charged with a Level Two striking offence against Richard Douglas (Ade) in Q3. In summary, Koschitzke's poor record means that his one-match sanction must remain as one-match, even with an early plea. The incident was assessed as reckless conduct (two points), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points). This is a total of five activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Two offence, drawing 125 demerit point and a one-match sanction. He has an existing bad record of two matches suspended in the last three years, increasing the penalty by 20 per cent to 150 points. He also has 54.69 demerit points carried over from within the last 12 months increasing the penalty to a total of 204.69 points and a two-match sanction.

Essendon: Adam McPhee, Brent Stanton, Nathan Lovett-Murray, Andrew Welsh. Umpires: Stephen McBurney, Matt Stevic, Shaun Ryan. Reports: Bernie Vince (Ade) reported by emergency umpire Mathew Nicholls for wrestling Mark McVeigh (Ess) in Q4. This charge was withdrawn. Nathan Lovett-Murray (Ess) was charged with a Level Two offence of engaging in rough conduct against Bernie Vince (Ade) in Q2. Lovett-Murray's poor record meant his two-game suspension remained at two games, even with an early plea. The incident was assessed as intentional conduct (three points), low impact (one point) and body contact (one point). This is a total of five activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Two offence, drawing 225 demerit points and a two-match sanction. He has an existing bad record of four matches suspended within the last three years, increasing the penalty by 40 per cent to 315 demerit points. He also has 41.25 points carried over from within the last 12 months, increasing the penalty to 356.25 points and a three-match sanction. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to 267.19 points and a two-match sentence. Essendon sought the adjudication of the Tribunal. On Tuesday night after Lovett-Murray's guilty plea the Tribunal agreed with Essendon's counsel and downgraded the rough conduct charge from intentional conduct to reckless conduct, reducing what would have been a three-game penalty to a suspension of two premiership matches. Mark McVeigh (Ess) was charged with a Level Three striking offence against Bernie Vince (Ade) in Q4. McVeigh previous poor record meant his two-game suspension remained at two games, even with an early plea. The incident was assessed as intentional conduct (three points), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points). This is a total of six activation points, resulting in a classification of a Level Three offence, drawing 225 demerit points and a two-match sanction. He has an existing bad record of two matches suspended within the last three years, increasing he penalty by 20 per cent to 270 demerit points. He also has 85.63 points carried over from within the last 12 months, increasing the penalty to 355.63 points and a three-match sanction. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to 266.72 points and a two-match sentence. Essendon sought the adjudication of the Tribunal. McVeigh pleaded guilty but counsel argued contact was not high but was rather to the body. The Tribunal agreed, reducing what would have been a three-game penalty to a suspension of one premiership match. 2009 — FIRST  SEMI-FINAL — GAME 2 Collingwood v Adelaide Saturday (n), September 12, 2009 MCG, 7.30pm AEST; crowd: 62,184 Conditions: Good Weather: 29C, after a record early-September high 29.9C at 4.39pm;                hot, cloudy, chance of a thundery shower   1/4 time 1/2 time 3/4 time Final COL 1.4-10 3.5-23 9.7-61 (10) 12.11-83 (5) ADE 6.3-39 (29) 7.7-49 (26) 7.9-51 11.12-78 Goals: Collingwood: Ben Johnson 2, Brad Dick 2, Tarkyn Lockyer, Harry O'Brien, Sharrod Wellingham, Dane Swan, Travis Cloke, Brent Macaffer, Leigh Brown, John Anthony.
