Fremantle midfielder Lachie Weller has been charged by the AFL match review panel with making forceful front-on contact with Melbourne’s Jayden Hunt during the third quarter of Saturday night’s clash at TIO Stadium in Darwin.

Based on the available video evidence and a medical report from Melbourne, the incident was assessed as careless conduct with low impact to the head. The incident was classified as a $1500 sanction but as Weller has no applicable record, he can accept a $1000 fine with an early plea.
