MELBOURNEfc's Aaron Davey has been suspended for a week of AFL football for unprofessional preparation in the lead-up to his Round 14 match against Brisbane.
Davey, was in Darwin during the week leading into Round 14, attending a close friend's mother's funeral.
Davey volunteered his lack of preparation and unprofessionalism during his time in Darwin to the Leadership Group once he returned to Melbourne. The group recommended to the Match Committee that Aaron play a week at Sandringham as a sanction.
Davey is now unavailable to play for MELBOURNEfc this Sunday against the Western Bulldogs and will line-up for Sandringham against Williamstown on Saturday.
