Geelong forward Tom Hawkins has been referred directly to the tribunal.
Hawkins will face the tribunal on Tuesday after making contact with umpire Dean Margetts.
The conduct was regarded as intentional.
He was also fined $2,000 for rough conduct on GWS defender Nick Haynes.
"I think what they're doing here is highlighting the serious nature of it," Triple M's Brian Taylor said.
Adam Tomlinson can also accept a $2,000 sanction for rough conduct on Jed Bews, with Jordan Murdoch cleared of contact on Jacob Hopper.
