3 minute read

West Coast forward Aimee Schmidt and Gold Coast's Serene Watson have escaped AFLW suspension, but Tegan Cunningham and Jess Waterhouse weren't as lucky.

Hawthorn's Tegan Cunningham and Adelaide's Jess Waterhouse have both copped one-match bans for incidents during round six of the AFLW season.

Cunningham was charged with rough conduct for a third-quarter hit against West Coast's Charlotte Thomas on Friday.

It was classified as careless conduct, medium impact and high contact, drawing a one-match ban.

Waterhouse's strike on Port's Amelie Borg was classed as intentional conduct, low impact, and high contact, also drawing a one-match ban.

West Coast forward Aimee Schmidt can escape with a reprimand for a rough conduct charge, while Gold Coast's Serene Watson can accept the same for her charge of a dangerous tackle on Richmond's Monique Conti.

The match-day report against Richmond's Kodi Jacques for her front-on bump on Gold Coast's Lauren Ahrens was thrown out.

Think. Is this a bet you really want to place?
