Dally M Rules
Under the new judging system (two judges per game), each match of suspension will invoke a 6-point deduction, rather than the previous 3-point deduction for each match.
This brings the suspension deduction in line with the maximum number of points a Player can receive in a given week, based on two judges and a three-point vote for each.
Eligibility rules will remain unchanged, with any player who is suspended from two (2) or more matches in any one season immediately becoming ineligible for the Dally M Awards.
