Andrew Brayshaw and Jack Martin will become the first players to challenge Match Review sanctions via written submissions when they take their respective charges for making careless contact with an umpire to the AFL Tribunal this week.

Both players were fined from Saturday night's Marsh Community Series clash between Fremantle and Carlton, though both have elected to challenge the sanctions.

Brayshaw was charged with a first offence of making Careless Contact with an Umpire (Daniel Johanson) during the second quarter.

Based on available evidence, the incident was assessed as Careless Contact with an Umpire. The incident was classified as a $1500 sanction as a first offence.

Under new streamlined Tribunal rules introduced last December, players challenging financial sanctions – in this case Brayshaw and Martin – can now do so via written submissions that will be assessed by a single legally-trained jury member.

As a result, neither player will be made to attend a specific hearing to challenge a financial sanction, with the decision to be relayed via the AFL on behalf of the Tribunal.

Players electing to challenge charges that involve suspensions in the future will still have to attend an AFL Tribunal hearing to present their cases, as per previous years.

Brayshaw and Martin were two of six players charged by the Match Review from Saturday night's clash in Mandurah, with Sam Docherty, Jack Newnes and Blake Acres all accepting $1000 penalties for engaging in a melee during the second quarter.

David Cuningham was also handed a $1500 fine as a fixed financial sanction for striking.

Elsewhere, Sydney's James Rowbottom was fined $1000 for making careless contact with an umpire – however, the Swans youngster has chosen to accept the ruling.

Collingwood midfielder Taylor Adams has also accepted a $2000 sanction for rough conduct, following a strong bump on Richmond premiership defender Nick Vlastuin.
