Greater Western Sydney will challenge Toby Greene and Jesse Hogan's one-match AFL suspensions in a bid to free them to face the Brisbane Lions on Anzac Day.
The league's match review officer on Sunday charged Greene with rough conduct on Jordan Boyd and Hogan with striking Lewis Young in separate incidents during the Giants' 19-point loss to Carlton on Saturday.
The pair will argue their case at Tuesday's tribunal, a week after Lions forward Charlie Cameron escaped his one-match suspension due to "exceptional and compelling circumstances" owing to a clean record across 207 games.
Giants captain Greene, who has a long history of indiscretions, faces his first suspension in more than two years over his mid-air bump on the Carlton defender.
Greene led at the ball and jumped for a mark but turned his body just before a collision and made contact with the head of Boyd, who was going back with the flight of the ball.
Boyd got up to take a free kick immediately and played out the match.
Greene's actions were graded as careless conduct, medium impact and high contact after coach Adam Kingsley had dismissed the incident post-match.
There won't be anything in that," Kingsley told reporters post-match.
"He's allowed to contest the ball, isn't he? He's allowed to launch at the ball?
"And if you're running and launching at the ball, and you've got your eyes for the ball, and you're trying to take a chest mark, and you get knocked ... free kick against?
"It's hard being Toby."
Hogan's left-handed blow to Blues defender Young's head during an off-the-ball scuffle in the goal square was graded intentional conduct, low impact and high contact.
The spearhead has been in terrific form this season, topping the Coleman Medal leaderboard with 21 goals from six games.
The Giants are 5-1 while last year's grand finalists Brisbane are 2-4.
