Richmond key forward Tom Lynch could have a case to answer for the AFL Match Review Officer after a high collision on Carlton ruckman Tom De Koning.
An incident in the second term of Thursday's clash at the MCG saw Lynch collect De Koning shortly after his opponent disposed of the ball.
Lynch's tucked right arm makes front-on contact with De Koning, with high contact made as a result of the Tiger's decision to bump.
While De Koning was able to remain on the field, Lynch's actions could earn him a rough conduct charge by the MRO.
If deemed as a reportable offence, Lynch will find out whether he will be handed a suspension or fine come Friday evening.
The MRO would likely grade the conduct as 'careless' instead of 'intentional', while the contact grading would likely be deemed 'high'.
The impact grading would then determine the extent of Lynch's potential punishment, with a 'low' grading meaning Lynch would walk away with a fine.
A 'medium' impact grading would result in a one-game suspension, while unlikely options of 'high' (two matches) or 'severe' (three or more) would lead to lengthier bans.
Richmond are scheduled to face Port Adelaide, St Kilda and Brisbane in their next three matches.
Any charges from Thursday's game between Carlton and Richmond will be handed down on Friday.
