Richmond will contest a striking charge handed to midfielder Daniel Jackson from last Sunday’s match against Melbourne at the MCG.

Jackson was charged with a level two striking offence on James McDonald during the second quarter, drawing 125 demerit points from the AFL Match Review Panel.

The incident was assessed as reckless conduct (two points), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points).

The tribunal hearing will be held tonight (Tuesday). An update will be posted on richmondfc.com.au following the hearing.
