CARLTON'S Jordan Boyd has been sent straight to Tribunal and is facing a ban of up to three weeks, while Adelaide's Josh Rachele has copped a two-game suspension.
Boyd was cited for a dump tackle on Port Adelaide's Darcy Byrne-Jones on Saturday evening, which was graded as careless, high contact and severe impact, meaning he'll face the Tribunal this week.

Pulled or Strained Groin: Treatment, Recovery Time, and More (healthline.com)
Recovery time
Recovery time for a groin strain injury depends on the degree of the injury.
In general, you can gauge the level of your recovery by your level of pain. As your adductor muscle is recovering, avoid activities that involve pain.
Resume activities gradually. This will enable your muscle to heal fully and prevent you from developing a recurrent groin strain injury.
The length of time you need to recover will also depend on your level of fitness before the injury. There’s no definitive time frame, since it’s different for everyone.
However, as a general guide, you can expect to rest several weeks before you’re able to return to full activities after a groin strain.
Depending on the grade of your strain, here are the estimated recovery times:
