WEST Coast speedster Lewis Jetta has been hit with a one-match suspension for engaging in rough conduct during the Eagles' victory over Melbourne on Friday night.
Jetta was cited for a fourth-quarter tackle that left Melbourne forward Tim Smith concussed and the 30-year-old can accept a one-game sanction with an early plea.

The incident was classified as careless conduct with medium impact and high contact and caused Smith to sit out the remainder of the contest.
Jetta received a free kick for the incident that occurred deep in Melbourne's forward line when scores were level early in the final term.
"I would have to have another look at it, but in the end he went off with concussion," Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin said of the incident after the loss.
"It's one of those footy things. Loud crowd, pretty hostile, didn’t hear the whistle and got pinged holding the ball."

Jetta's teammate Elliot Yeo was somewhat luckier, with the midfielder escaping with a fine after being charged with misconduct against Melbourne midfielder James Harmes.
Yeo, who starred for the Eagles with 26 disposals and a whopping 16 tackles, can accept a $1,000 fine with an early plea for pushing Harmes into the path of an umpire.
