Crowley cops reprimand for staging

Updated June 05, 2012 12:38:56

Fremantle tagger Ryan Crowley has accepted a reprimand for staging after he was charged with faking illegal contact in Saturday's 29-point loss to Adelaide.

The controversial midfielder threw his head back to exaggerate minor contact from Adelaide's Scott Thompson in an attempt to win a free-kick.

Crowley's actions were caught on camera and he has now accepted a written reprimand from the AFL, with fines of up to $2,400 looming for a repeat offence.

The tribunal will not sit on Tuesday night after all players chose to accept the sanctions imposed by the match review panel.

Hawthorn's Jordan Lewis copped the heftiest sanction, accepting a two-match ban for rough conduct against North Melbourne's Todd Goldstein.

Lewis' poor disciplinary record meant the two-match suspension was automatically imposed.

The Hawks' acting captain will miss upcoming matches against Port Adelaide and Brisbane.

Lewis is joined on the sidelines by Richmond's Jake King and West Coast's Beau Waters who were suspended for tripping and rough conduct respectively.

Meanwhile, Adelaide's Bernie Vince could not escape a level three charge for striking Fremantle's Zac Clarke, which landed Vince a one-match ban.

Sydney Swans forward Ben McGlynn will also miss a game after he accepted the sanction for striking Patrick Veszpremi of the Western Bulldogs.

Essendon ruckman Paddy Ryder accepted a reprimand and 66 points towards his future record for tripping Melbourne's Dan Nicholson.

Goodes accepts tripping reprimand

Posted May 24, 2011 12:00:00

Sydney's Adam Goodes has accepted a reprimand from the AFL's Match Review Panel for tripping Hawthorn's Brent Guerra.

The dual Brownlow Medallist remains eligible for this year's award after receiving a reprimand and 66 points towards his future record.

Carlton's Brock McLean, Richmond's Dylan Grimes, Melbourne's Joel MacDonald and Fremantle's Stephen Hill have also lodged early-guilty pleas and are free to play this weekend.

McLean accepted a $900 sanction for making negligent contact with umpire Chris Donlon during the first quarter of the round-nine match against Geelong at Docklands on Friday night.

Hill pleaded guilty to making negligent contact with umpire Stuart Wenn during the third quarter of the game against Port Adelaide at Football Park on Saturday and also accepted a $900 sanction.

MacDonald has been fined $900 for wrestling St Kilda's Nick Winmar during the half-time break of Saturday's game at Docklands.

Grimes accepted a reprimand and 60 points towards his future record for tripping Essendon's Leroy Jetta during the third quarter of Saturday night's clash at the MCG.

The AFL Tribunal will not sit on Tuesday night as no players are contesting charges.
