Grundy avoids suspension, free to face Hawks

Collingwood ruckman Brodie Grundy is free to take on Hawthorn in round one after avoiding suspension for his late bump to Western Bulldogs forward Tory Dickson in Moe on Saturday.

Grundy has been offered a $2000 fine for making rough conduct to Dickson in the sides’ JLT Community series clash. Dickson was floored, but played out the game, helping Grundy's cause.

The impact was classified as "careless conduct with low impact to the head".

Fellow Magpie Travis Varcoe has avoided sanction for a final-quarter incident with the Dogs’ Hayden Crozier.

No players were suspended across any of the JLT or AFLW games over the weekend.
