Port Adelaide's Byron Pickett was suspended for six matches by the AFL Tribunal on Tuesday night.
Pickett pleaded guilty to the charge of rough play against Adelaide's James Begley but contested the grading of the offence.
However, the Tribunal upheld the match review panel ruling that Picket's shirtfront bump on Begley was intentional and the impact severe.
Pickett will miss this weekend's Wizard Cup quarter-final and Port Adelaide's progression in the competition will determine how many matches he misses in the premiership season.
