Heslop is facing the biggest ban in AFLW history for her crunching tackle that left Demon Rhi Watt concussed last Saturday.
The 22-year-old Heslop is facing at least three weeks on the sidelines after being referred directly to the Tribunal – with fears her 2023 season will be over unless she can overturn the hefty sanction.
Mullins has also opted to fight her one-match ban for a stray off-the -ball elbow in that same clash with Melbourne.
