Another Shepparton Swans regular is set for a stint on the sidelines after drawing the attention of the Goulburn Valley League’s Match Review Officer.

The Swans drew 75-75 with Mansfield at Princess Park in round eight but will be sweating on Zac Clohesy’s short-term availability after he was cited for a high bump.

The incident was graded intentional, high, and medium impact, with Clohesy offered three weeks - reduced to two if an early guilty plea is accepted.

Clohesy accepted the early guilty plea and will miss matches against Tatura and Echuca.

Mooroopna’s Jack Osborne was also offered a week by the MRO for a rough conduct charge stemming from an incident in the Cats’ rousing 23-point win against Seymour.

Osborne booted three goals in the win and can escape with a reprimand if an early guilty plea is accepted.

Osborne accepted an early guilty plea and will be available for the Cats’ round nine clash with Kyabram.

In the Murray league, Nathalia’s Clancy Congues had a one-week suspension reduced to a reprimand after a rough conduct charge was levelled at the experienced Purples star.

Moama’s Zac Stovell is also free to play in this weekend’s Three Jacks Cup clash against Echuca United after avoiding a one-match ban for tripping in the Pies’ one-point thriller against Finley.
