Richmond midfielder Daniel Jackson will miss this weekend's match against Brisbane after accepting a one-week ban for striking North Melbourne's Scott Thompson.

The incident was assessed as reckless conduct (two points), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points), drawing 125 demerit points and a one-match sanction.

He has an existing bad record of five matches suspended within the last three years, increasing the penalty by 50 per cent to 187.50 points. He also has 41.88 demerit points carried over from within the last 12 months, increasing the penalty to 229.38 points and a two-match sanction.

Jackson took the option of an early guilty plea, which reduced the sanction by 25 per cent to 172.04 points and a one-match sanction.
