Ellie has been rubbed out for week by the MRP.

----

RICHMOND gun Ellie McKenzie is set to miss the Tigers' clash against Port Adelaide after being offered a one-match ban for a dangerous tackle.

McKenzie was cited for her tackle on Dayna Finn during the Tigers' 33-point win over Carlton on Thursday night.

The Tigers midfielder gave away a free kick after the tough tackle on Finn, who hit her head on the ground.

The Match Review Officer graded the tackle as careless conduct, medium impact and high contact, resulting in the one-match ban.

McKenzie has impressed this season, averaging 19.8 disposals, 3.5 clearances, 3.5 marks and 3.5 tackles.

Richmond (3-1) faces the Power at Ikon Park on Tuesday night.

Great game in the wet. The girls wonderfully led by Brennan. She again was leading by example and hopefully she will be holding up the cup at seasons end.  :clapping

Mon Conti absolutely dominated again in the wet. She was clean and carved it up and almost kicked goal of the year.  :clapping :clapping

Like the look of our new fill-in Ruck, besides the one dropped mark she looked pretty good and really liked her second efforts.  :clapping

Greiser was a major contributor and as much as I've been disappointed in her last few weeks she really used her size to get front position and she used her strength to her advantage and reaped the awards.  She read the ball really well and was very clean with the footy.   :clapping

Dempsey continues to impress and keeps herself involved the whole game. She's probably one of the fittest in the side because she continues to get into excellent positions and just keeps getting better with age.  :clapping

I think Gabby Seymour was really good in defence as was Miller and Graham. Actually our whole defence was pretty dominant all night.  :clapping


McKenzie is a beast and continues to dominate, it's a shame she got a one match ban. As I've said before,  she is the future Dustin Martin of the AFLW.  :clapping :clapping :clapping

Egan was much better especially in the second half. She just needs to get her stupid nothing possessions out of her game and stop hand passing to the opposition.  :clapping

Sheerin will improve in the middle. Once she finds her way in there she will be unstoppable.  :clapping :clapping

I think our team is definitely a chance this season. Hopefully no injuries and no one gets rubbed out again and there's no reason why we can't go all the way.

Now the MRO has decided to strike (no pun intended) the AFLW and dish out stupid penalties

And BTW it's not that Ellie got cited it's the fact there were multiple tackles during the course of the game like that one and no frees paid, let alone suspension

Correct call was a free, should be nothing more
