Hawthorn’s Roughead facing AFL ban

Hawthorn’s star forward Jarryd Roughead has been offered a one-match AFL ban for tripping Melbourne’s Dom Tyson.

Roughead leads the AFL’s Coleman Medal on 55 goals after booting five majors in his side’s 50-point win over Melbourne last weekend.

The dual premiership player won the Coleman Medal in 2013 and was also named in the All-Australian side for the first time.

Ladder leaders Hawthorn travel to Perth to play fourth-placed Fremantle on Sunday.

Geelong pair Steve Johnson and Travis Varcoe and Fremantle’s Nat Fyfe and Nick Suban have been cleared, the AFL’s match review panel announced on Monday.
