Richmond playmaker Shane Edwards has been offered a $2000 fine by the AFL's Match Review Panel for rough conduct in Tuesday night's win over Melbourne at the MCG.

The charge came out of contact made by Edwards on Demon Neville Jetta during the second term of the Anzac Day Eve clash.

Edwards can accept the fine with an early plea and will be free to face Collingwood at the MCG this Sunday.
