Charges laid:
Corey Enright, Geelong, has been charged with a level two striking offence (125 demerit points, one-match sanction), for striking Chris Mayne, Fremantle, during the second quarter of the Second qualifying final between Geelong's and Fremantle, played at Simonds Stadium on Saturday September 7, 2013.
In summary, he can accept a reprimand and 93.75 points towards his future record with an early plea.
Based on the video evidence available and medical report from the Fremantle Football Club, 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 125 demerit points and a one-match sanction. He has no existing good or bad record. An early plea reduces the sanction by 25 per cent to a reprimand and 93.75 points towards his future record.

Other incidents assessed:
The match day report against Fremantle's Zac Dawson for striking Geelong's James Podsiadly before the start of the first quarter was assessed. After viewing all available footage, speaking to the umpire who laid the report on the day and receiving a medical report from Geelong's Football Club, it was the view of the panel that Dawson used an open hand in his action and that the contact was below that required to constitute a reportable offence.
Contact between Fremantle's Zac Dawson and Geelong's Matthew Stokes from the first quarter of Saturday's match was assessed. After viewing all available footage, receiving a medical report from Geelong's Football Club and interviewing player Stokes in an investigation, it could not be determined conclusively that a reportable offence had occurred. No further action was taken.
Contact between Fremantle's Zac Dawson and Geelong's Joel Selwood from the fourth quarter of Saturday's match was assessed. Selwood had the ball and was wanting to handball to a teammate down the ground as Dawson was coming towards him. As Selwood disposed of the ball, Dawson jumped in the air in a bid to smother the hand pass and made contact with his Geelong opponent. It was the view of the panel that Dawson's actions were not unreasonable or unnecessary in the circumstances and no further action was taken.
