KEY HAWTHORN pair James Sicily and Dylan Moore have both copped one-match bans for striking, while Gold Coast defender John Noble will also miss the Anzac Day clash between the two sides on Saturday after he was charged with rough conduct.<\/p>\n

Port Adelaide star Zak Butters, meanwhile, has been sanctioned for the 23rd time in his career, fined for striking to take his career fines tally to $52,625 (with an early plea) as he awaits Monday night’s Appeals Board hearing into the finding of umpire abuse against him from last week’s game.<\/a><\/p>\n

Sicily and Moore were both cited for striking Port Adelaide’s Logan Evans off the ball during Saturday evening’s nail-biting win at Marvel Stadium.<\/p>\n

They will now miss the Hawks’ match against Gold Coast in Launceston on Anzac Day, as will Noble, who has also copped a one-game ban.<\/p>\n

Noble was charged for an incident with Essendon’s Tom Edwards, which eventually led to the Bombers forward being pulled out of the game due to concussion.<\/p>\n

Noble caught Edwards high with an elbow partway during the fourth quarter, sparking a small melee and leading to a free kick to the Bombers.<\/p>\n

His Suns teammate, Touk Miller, has been fined for careless contact with an umpire for a heavy collision in Saturday’s match at People First Stadium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The match review for Saturday’s round six games is in James Sicily with Aliir Aliir and Logan Evans…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":617116,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,83,41,39,42,40],"class_list":{"0":"post-617115","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-text","11":"tag-top-news","12":"tag-top-stories","13":"tag-topnews","14":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/617115","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=617115"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/617115\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/617116"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=617115"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=617115"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=617115"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
