Please note: As previously communicated, Tribunal proceedings have been simplified for challenges to financial sanctions, where at the election of the charged player, a single legally trained jury member may decide the matter on the basis of written submissions only. The charged player is not required to attend a Tribunal hearing. The AFL then communicates the outcome on behalf of the Tribunal.
