A bump which concussed Fremantle superstar Nat Fyfe has cost Greater Western Sydney’s Sam Reid a two-game AFL suspension.
Dual Brownlow medallist Fyfe was playing as a permanent forward when he copped an off-the-ball bump to the head from Reid in the Dockers’ 31-point victory over the Giants on Sunday.
Match review officer Michael Christian graded the incident as careless conduct, high impact and high conduct and Reid has been offered a two-match ban if he pleads guilty.
Under the AFL’s new concussion guidelines, the Fremantle captain has been automatically ruled out of the Dockers’ round-three match against Carlton at Marvel Stadium on Sunday.
And given his history with concussion, Fyfe is no guarantee to return for the round-four clash with Hawthorn, either.
After a horror 0-2 start to the season, GWS can not afford to lose any player as their poor form last year has been carried into 2021.
