Report:
Steve Johnson (Gee) was charged with a Level One striking offence against Craig Bolton, Sydney Swans in Q4.  
In summary, he can accept a reprimand and 45 points towards his future record with an early plea.
The incident was assessed as reckless conduct (two points), low impact (one point) and body contact (one point). This is a total of four activation points resulting in the classification of a Level One offence, drawing 80 demerit points and a reprimand. His five-year good record reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to 60 demerit points. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to a reprimand and 45 demerit points towards his future record.
Johnson accepted guilt and the reprimand handed down by the MRP.
