Billy Frampton's rough conduct charge was dismissed Wednesday night after the AFL Tribunal found Brody Mihocek's attempt to drive through the tackle changed its trajectory in ways that made the fracture unavoidable. Mihocek, who fractured his neck and underwent surgery, has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2026 season.
