Round 10 - Post Game List Update

Was waiting for the Parker decision.

Luke Parker Tribunal Decision

Sydney Swans midfielder [PLAYERCARD]Luke Parker[/PLAYERCARD] has been handed a 6-match ban at the VFL Tribunal after an incident in Friday night’s 15-point loss to Frankston.

Parker was charged with rough conduct after a bump which resulted in an accidental head clash with Frankston player, Josh Smith.

The Sydney Swans have accepted the ban.

Parker has since reached out to Smith and expressed his remorse over the incident.

The Sydney Swans and Parker wish Josh all the best in his recovery.

AFL Early prognosis

McCartin will miss again as he recovers from the concussion he suffered against the Giants. With the Swans to have the bye in round 12, the key back should return to face Geelong on June 9, which is more than five weeks after the Giants game. Fox will miss around three weeks with an AC joint injury suffered against the Blues, a prognosis that is better than first thought. Mills is increasing his running volume as he gets closer to a return to full fitness, while Parker's suspension means his long wait for a senior game in 2024 will continue. - Martin Smith
