West Coast will challenge the one-match suspension offered to gun midfielder Elliot Yeo at the AFL Tribunal on Tuesday evening.
The dual John Worsfold medallist was charged with striking Collingwood’s Rupert Wills during Sunday’s big win at Optus Stadium.
Match Review Officer Michael Christian judged the third quarter incident to be Intentional Conduct, Low Impact and High Contact, equalling a one-week ban with an early guilty plea.
Yeo would miss the important clash with Geelong this Saturday night if his suspension stands, with the Eagles only risking a financial sanction by challenging the ban.
Meanwhile, Dom Sheed can accept a $1000 sanction with an early guilty plea for striking Taylor Adams during the second term in an incident classified as Intentional Conduct, Low Impact and Body Contact.
