AFLW: Adelaide Crow Najwa Allen could receive the longest suspension in AFLW history after being straight to the Tribunal for her bump on Kirsten McLeod.
Premiership Crows defender Najwa Allen could be hit with the largest suspension in AFLW history after being referred directly to the tribunal for a bump that left her opponent concussed.
Allen’s charge was graded as high contact, severe impact and careless conduct, with the AFL recommending a suspension of at least three matches.A three-game ban would be the biggest suspension in AFLW history and would rule Allen out for the rest of the home and away season. She’d be eligible to return for the first week of the finals, with the Crows set to finish inside the top four.
“It’s something that we’ll watch and monitor really closely in the last three weeks … We certainly won’t be rushing her back. We’ll take it really slowly with her.”
