RICHMOND star Eilish Sheerin has been sent straight to Tribunal after making intentional contact with a referee, while veteran Sydney defender Maddy Collier has been handed a one-match suspension.

Sheerin was cited for intentional contact with a referee, as opposed to reckless conduct which would have only resulted in a fine.

The Match Review Officer has opted to refer Sheerin directly to the Tribunal over the incident which occurred in the fourth quarter of the Dreamtime in Darwin match on Saturday night.

Collier was cited for rough conduct involving Brisbane’s Shannon Campbell in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game.

The match review officer classified the incident as intentional, medium impact and body contact, which resulted in a one-match suspension.

Meanwhile, six other players were fined as early as week nine.
