SYDNEY star Adam Goodes will miss his side's clash against Collingwood at ANZ Stadium in the second half of the split round after accepting a one-match ban for engaging in rough conduct against Melbourne's Clint Bartram at Manuka Oval on Sunday.
The match review panel ruled his latest indiscretion as negligent conduct, low impact and high contact resulting in 125 points but because of Goodes' recent reprimand - for making similar head high contact in a bump on West Coast's Adam Selwood - he had 93.75 carry over points meaning he faced 218.75 points or a two-match suspension.
Because the dual Brownlow medallist entered an early guilty plea he escaped with just 164.06 points and a one-match ban.
The suspension means Goodes' run of consecutive matches ends at 204, placing him third on the all time list behind Melbourne duo Jim Stynes and Adem Yze.
In other tribunal news, Fremantle ruckman Robert Warnock has accepted a reprimand and 93.75 points towards his future record for charging St Kilda midfielder Luke Ball.
St Kilda's Brendon Goddard has accepted a $900 sanction for wrestling Warnock in the first quarter of Friday night's clash at Telstra Dome.
Port Adelaide's Matt Thomas has accepted a one-match ban for engaging in rough conduct against Richmond veteran Joel Bowden, while Adelaide defender Nathan Bassett will face the Tribunal on Tuesday after being charged with striking Brisbane midfielder Jed Adcock.
His clash with Adcock was assessed as negligent conduct, low impact and high contact.
The 31-year-old has nothing to lose by challenging his ban as he was still facing a one-match suspension regardless of whether or not he accepted the charge but he is now risking 140 points instead of 105 points.
