Carr cleared
September 18th 2006 06:01
The Fremantle Dockers have received a major boost ahead of Friday night's preliminary final against Sydney with tough midfielder Josh Carr cleared of making contact with Melbourne tagger James McDonald in the second quarter of last Friday night's first semi-final.
The match review panel examined all available video footage and also interviewed players and officials from both clubs.
Taking into account the statements of the players concerned, the absence of any injury sustained and the inconclusive nature of the available video footage, no further action was taken on the matter.
Charges Laid:
Brian Harris, Western Bulldogs, has been charged with a Level Two striking offence for striking Adam Hunter, West Coast, during the third quarter of the First Semi Final between the Western Bulldogs and West Coast, played at Subiaco on Saturday September 16, 2006.
In summary, his poor record and carry over points from within the last 12 months means he can accept a two-match sanction with an early plea.
The incident was assessed as intentional conduct (three points), low impact (one point), in play (no points) and high contact (two points). This is a total of six activation points, which relates to a Level Three offence, drawing 225 demerit points and a two-match sanction. He has a total of five matches suspended within the last three years, which increases his penalty by 40 per cent to 315 points. He also has 78.75 residual points from within the last 12 months, increasing his penalty to 393.75 points and a three-match sanction. An early plea reduces the penalty by 25 per cent to 295.31 points and a two-match sanction.
