He will now miss Saturday night’s match against Gold Coast at Metricon Stadium and the following week’s blockbuster battle with Collingwood in Perth.
Fyfe claimed that at no stage did he make an intentional decision to kick Richmond’s Daniel Jackson.
He said he prided himself on being a fair player and that he was offended by the accusation of 'intentional' against him.
Fyfe also emphatically denied looking at Jackson when the contact was made, but in response, the AFL legal counsel said that “doesn’t sound right”.
In closing, Fyfe’s legal counsel said there was no evidence to prove what his intention was, and therefore charge him with deliberate conduct.
They also added that the Tribunal was bound to consider Fyfe's credibility.
But that didn’t save the talented midfielder after the jury consisting of Wayne Henwood, Wayne Schimmelbusch and Emmett Dunne handed down its verdict.
They were satisfied Fyfe’s action was intentional and handed down a two-match suspension, despite the Freo counsel asking if there were exceptional and compelling circumstances to reduce thepoints penalty from 250 to 125 points and a one-match ban.
Below is an account of the Tribunal proceedings taken from an afl.com.au live chat
"Fyfe at @AFLTribunal : At no stage did I make an intentional decision to kick Daniel Jackson"
"Fyfe says he has prided himself on being a fair player. Says he was offended by the accusation of 'intentional'"
"Fyfe says he was always looking at the football. He is accused of looking at Jackson just before he 'kicked' him"
""This conduct has the hallmarks of intentional conduct", says @AFL legal counsel"
"Fyfe's counsel says there is no evidence to prove what Fyfe's intention was, and charge him with deliberate conduct"
""Tribunal is bound to consider Fyfe's credibility" adds his counsel"
"@AFLTribunal Chairman David Jones is now giving his instructions to the panel"
"Jones says Fyfe's record as a clean footballer is relevant"
"Jury will be left to deliberate & asked if they are satisfied on the balance of probabilities that Fyfe intentionally kicked Jackson"
"Jury of Wayne Henwood, Wayne Schimmelbusch and Emmett Dunne now deliberating"
"Decision about to be delivered"
"Jury is satisfied it was intentional"
"Prior now suggesting 250 points is manifestly excessive. Says tribunal should have a different penalty."
"He is pushing for level 1 and 125 points. Says to start at 250 points doesn't give proper justice to the circumstances of this case."
"Jury is now being asked to consider if there are exceptional and compelling circumstances to reduce points penalty. If not, 250 points will apply."
"Jury says there are not compelling circumstances. Penalty is 250 points, two games."
