Following on from Collingwood's Jaidyn Stephenson receiving a 10-match ban for betting on Pies matches, we've delved back into the books and looked at 10 of the most famous suspensions in the league's history.
The majority of this list includes penalties from on-field incidents, but we've included events off the field too, such as Stephenson's.
Here are 10 of the AFL's most famous suspensions:
7.
John Bourke - 1985 - 240 matches
Bourke was suspended by the AFL/VFL Tribunal for one of the biggest blow ups ever seen on a footy field while playing for the Collingwood Reserves.
It started with Bourke kicking the opposition ruckman in the groin, before shoving umpire Phil Waight and kicking him on the ground for trying to send him off after the incident. Bourke preceded to strike the Collingwood runner and attack a Swans fan in the crowd as he was coming off.
He received a 10-year ban plus 16 matches (240 matches total).
