GWS forward Callum Brown has been handed a three-match ban for his high bump on Sydney’s Tom McCartin.
Brown caught the Swan high after chasing a loose ball. Once McCartin possessed the footy, the Giant braced for contact with his shoulder hitting the defender’s face.
McCartin was concussed as a result and the MRO graded the incident as rough conduct that was careless, high contact and severe impact.
