Lance Franklin has been reported for a bump on Richmond's Connor Menadue in the second quarter.

The Swans forward bumped Menadue while the Tiger was over the ball on Richmond's half forward flank, with the incident starting a melee between the two sides.

Franklin hasn't missed a game for the Swans since round 21, 2015, and would miss his side's clash with Essendon at the SCG next Friday night.
