EVIDENCE from Hawthorn’s Brent Guerra after an investigation on Monday has helped the match review panel charge Geelong star Joel Selwood with a level-five striking offence, which incurs a four-week sanction. Selwood can accept a three-week ban with an early plea.
The panel relied on testimony supplied by Guerra as well as video evidence and a medical report from Hawthorn in reaching their decision.
Guerra suffered a perforated eardrum following the incident causing issues with his balance and hearing but the club is monitoring his progress, confirming he has improved significantly over the past 24 hours.
The incident was assessed as intentional conduct (three points), high impact (three points) and high contact (two points) drawing 425 demerit points and a four-match sanction.
Selwood has no existing good or bad record and an early guilty plea reduces the sanction by 25 per cent to 318.75 points and a three-match ban.
If Selwood accepts the ban he will be ineligible for the Brownlow Medal.
Selwood is the only player facing a ban from the seven matches assessed in round 12 so far.

Mundy out 6-8 weeks due to high ankle sprain.
I am going to trade him out for Gazza.
Joel Selwood can accept three weeks.
That's now Selwood, Mundy and Sandilands all 500k + players facing 3+ week layoffs.
Jed Adcock
Jed is having surgery on his finger on Wednesday. He’s had a finger fracture for a while that we were hoping when splinted would re-unite, but it’s actually getting further displaced so he’ll have the screw put in his finger on Wednesday and we’ll know more then about time frames.
Nasty. Goes some way to explaining his sudden drop off.
Adcock to undergo surgery
THE BRISBANE Lions' nightmare season has continued with vice-captain Jed Adcock set to undergo surgery on a broken finger on Wednesday.
Lions physical performance manager Brett Burton said Adcock had carried the injury for a while.
"We were hoping when splinted it would reunite, but it's actually getting further displaced so he'll have the screw put in his finger on Wednesday and we'll know more then about time frames," Burton said.
Adcock's injury comes less than a week after news reliable full-back Daniel Merrett would miss up to 10 weeks with back stress fractures.
It puts a huge hole in the Lions defence ahead of Saturday's home match against Richmond.
Adcock, 25, is having an excellent season across half-back, averaging more than 21 disposals per match, but his injury continues a season full of bad luck for coach Michael Voss.
