Patrick Dangerfield does not believe he will be suspended for an incident that saw Richmond defender Nick Vlastuin stretchered off the field wearing a neck brace.

Match Review Officer Michael Christian is expected to assess the incident and if found guilty Dangerfield faces a trip to the tribunal.

โ€œI didnโ€™t think there was much in it,โ€ Dangerfield said after the game and reported by Tom Morris from Fox Sports. 

โ€œI was trying to tap the ball away. There were three Richmond players coming towards me. Had it been something there would have been repercussions on the field.

โ€œFor everyone it is just play on. It is a contact sport.โ€

Dangerfield was below his influential best in the Grand Final, finishing the game with 12 disposals and one goal.
