Horror tackle Aussie to learn fate today

Under-fire Australian co-captain Chris Johnson will defend the actions which saw him red-card in last month's International Rules second Test by video link later today.

The Brisbane Lions defender, who was sent-off for a vicious “clothesline” tackle on Ireland's Philip Jordan in the second quarter of the 63-42 win for the Aussies, is up on two striking charges at a joint AFL-GAA Tribunal.
