Geelong duo James Kelly and David Wojcinski have been cleared by the match review panel following the Cats win over Collingwood.
Contact between Wojcinski and Alan Didak from the first quarter of Friday’s match was assessed by the panel. Didak was contesting a loose ball as Wojcinski came towards the ball. Wojcinski had his eyes on the ball at all times and attempted to kick the ball forward. Wojcinski missed the ball and made contact with Didak’s leg, conceding a free kick. It was the view of the panel that Wojcinski was attempting to contest the ball and no further action was taken.
Contact between Kelly and Andrew Krakouer from the fourth quarter was also assessed. Krakouer had moved on to a loose ball and handballed the ball, when he was bumped by Kelly. Contact is made both to the body and high, and Krakouer was paid a free kick. The Collingwood player was not treated for any injury and it was the view of the panel that the high contact was below the forced required to constitute a report.
Collingwood forward Travis Cloke was also cleared over the incident that forced Cameron Ling from the ground. Cloke had disposed of the ball after he was tackled by Ling. As Cloke was falling to the ground, he held on to Ling, after the tackle. Ling landed awkwardly but it was the view of the panel that Cloke’s actions were not reportable.
