September 12th 2006 01:29
Collingwood onballer Brodie Holland faces the prospect of missing the opening six rounds of the 2007 season should he fail in his bid to beat a rough conduct charge at the tribunal tonight.
Holland has been charged with a Level Five offence following his heavy hit on Western Bulldogs veteran Brett Montgomery in the first quarter of last Sunday's first elimination final.
The incident was assessed as intentional conduct (three points), high impact (three points), in play (no points) and high contact (two points). This is a total of eight activation points, which relates to a Level Five offence, drawing 425 demerit points and a four-match sanction.
Holland has been suspended for a total of five games in the past three years, which increases his penalty by 40 per cent to 595 points.
He also has 96.88 residual points from within the last 12 months, increasing his penalty to 691.88 points and a six-match sanction.
Meanwhile Melbourne defender Jared Rivers has accepted a $900 fine for wrestling with St Kilda's Nick Dal Santo during the second quarter of Friday night's second elimination final.
Saints veteran Andrew Thompson has also accepted a reprimand and 70.31 points towards his future record for engaging in rough conduct against Melbourne's Cameron Bruce during the second quarter.
