Head Injury Assessments and Potential Bans

In a separate incident, Hawthorn's Jack Ginnivan delivered a jumper punch that struck Gold Coast's Zeke Uwland on the chin. Despite the contact, Ginnivan may avoid suspension for the incident.
Gold Coast's Sam Clohesy faces a certain ban after a tackle that drove Hawthorn's Cameron Nairn face-first into the turf. Nairn underwent a head injury assessment but was subsequently cleared to return to the field.
