IF Essendon didn't have enough troubles, a bunch of key players must tread carefully every time they cross the white line.
David Zaharakis, Paddy Ryder, Heath Hocking and Jake Carlisle will be automatically suspended if they get reported in the first half of the season.
The Bombers headed to Adelaide last week with demerit points hovering over eight players.
The club inherited 43 points with gun midfielder Brendon Goddard. The former Saint served a two-game suspension for striking North Melbourne's Sam Wright in Round 14 last year.
Hocking (97 points), Zaharakis (93), Carlisle (93) and Ryder (66) are most at risk.
Fremantle skipper Matthew Pavlich is also vulnerable with 93 points and he has a nervous wait today as the AFL match review panel considers a charging count for an incident with Eagle Will Schofield.
Five important Geelong players are under threat until well into the second half of the season.
New captain Joel Selwood carries 84 points, followed by James Kelly with 64, Paul Chapman on 60 and Steve Johnson with 54. Jimmy Bartel, with 43, is the first to get rid of his pesky points - after Round 15.
Midfield aces Chris Judd (50) and Dane Swan (60) can't afford another undisciplined slip-up or frustrated retaliation.
Premier Sydney is in good shape, with midfielder Adam Goodes and defender Ted Richards shedding their 80 and 70 millstones if they don't transgress in the opening four rounds.
The Brisbane Lions' promised resurgence could hinge on how well Simon Black, Daniel Rich and Daniel Merrett avoid attention for the wrong reasons.
Brian Lake (Hawthorn), Quinten Lynch (Collingwood) and Sharrod Wellingham (West Coast) brought only small points tallies to their new clubs. But Wellingham risks harsher treatment next time from the percentage loading for a poor record.
