Fremantle forward Josh Treacy has been suspended for two matches by the WAFL tribunal for striking.
The incident occurred during Peel’s pre-season clash against Perth at David Grays Arena on Saturday.

Treacy was initially charged by the WAFL’s match review panel. It was classified as intentional, high contact and medium impact, which carried a three-match suspension, down to two with an early plea.
The tribunal re-graded the incident from intentional to careless, which carries a two-match sanction.
Because of the non-alignment of the WAFL and AFL seasons, Treacy won’t be available to play in the AFL until round five.
