WEST Coast midfielder Deven Robertson has been hit with a one-game ban for a dangerous tackle on Port Adelaide’s Zak Butters, while Butters’ bill continues to climb to eye-watering levels after he was fined for engaging in a melee.<\/p>\n
Robertson conceded a free kick for the tackle on the Power star midway through the third term of the Eagles’ thrilling win over Port on Sunday<\/a>.<\/p>\n Butters was able to get up and take his kick and played out the game.<\/p>\n The Match Review Officer graded the incident as careless, medium impact and high contact, drawing the one-match suspension.<\/p>\n The ban means Robertson will miss the Eagles’ clash with Sydney at Optus Stadium on Saturday.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Butters’ career fines tally has climbed over the $50,000 mark after he was hit with a $1000 fine (with an early guilty plea) for engaging in a melee in the third quarter of Sunday’s game.<\/p>\n From his 142 appearances, Butters has been sanctioned on 21 occasions.\u00a0<\/p>\n He’s only marginally ahead of Greater Western Sydney skipper Toby Greene, who has amassed $48,850 in fines so far across his 265-game career.<\/p>\n Eagles co-skipper Liam Baker was also fined $1000 (with an early plea) for engaging in a melee, while Melbourne’s Latrelle Pickett was slapped with a $1000 fine (with an early plea) for careless contact with an umpire during the Demons’ epic come-from-behind win over Carlton on Sunday<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Butters bill<\/p>\n Appearances: 142 Toby’s track record<\/p>\n Appearances: 265
