Koschitzke accepts ban
July 21st 2009 04:45
ST KILDA forward Justin Koschitzke will miss Saturday night's clash against the Western Bulldogs after accepting a one-match ban for striking.
Koschitzke was charged with striking Adelaide's Richard Douglas during the third quarter of last Sunday's match.
The 26-year-old was unable to escape with a reprimand due to his previous poor record and risked missing two matches if he challenged the charge.
Meanwhile, the Saints opted to contest the the two-match suspension given to in-form defender Zac Dawson.
Dawson was booked for engaging in rough conduct against Crow defender Brad Symes and will be risking a two-match suspension when he contests the charge at the tribunal on Tuesday night.
The former Hawk could have accepted a one-match ban if he took the early guilty.
