No AFL tribunal after Ryder accepts fine

The AFL tribunal isn't required to convene on Tuesday evening with Port Adelaide's Paddy Ryder accepting a fine.

The AFL tribunal won't sit on Tuesday with Port Adelaide ruckman Paddy Ryder accepting a fine for rough conduct.

Ryder was cited for a bump on Richmond's Anthony Miles that sent the midfielder sprawling to the turf in the third quarter of the Tigers' 28-point win in Mount Gambier.

The incident was assessed as careless conduct with low impact to the head, with Ryder fined $1000 with an early guilty plea.

Just two other incidents caught the eye of the match review panel but Geelong's Nakia Cockatoo and Sydney's Lance Franklin escaped without charge.

The AFL Women's tribunal wasn't required either, Brisbane's Brittany Gibson accepting a reprimand for making front-on contact with Adelaide skipper Chelsea Randall.
