PORT ADELAIDE will be without star forward Daniel Motlop for its NAB Cup quarter-final against West Coast at Subiaco Oval after he accepted a one-match ban for engaging in rough conduct against Adelaide midfielder Michael Doughty.
Motlop risked a two-match suspension for his slinging tackle on Doughty in the second quarter of the Power's 56-point win if he challenged the charge due to a previous indiscretion last season.
The 27-year-old's decision to accept the ban means he will be able to take his place in the side to face North Melbourne in round one of the home-and-away season.
He will now have 64.06 demerit points hanging over his head for the next 12 months.
