MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Former Sydney Swans Australian Rules player Peter Filandia has been suspended for 10 matches after pleading guilty to biting an opponent's testicles during a game last week

Always had my suspisions about them dodgy shirts they wore !!

"I know that what occurred was wrong and that I must pay the penalty for it.


"It was a split-second decision I made in a state of panic, and I emphasise panic, to release his grip (from) around my neck and mouth."


Tribunal chairman Eddie Power ordered Filandia to undergo player counselling before resuming playing.


"Your actions have caused untold damage to the game of football (which is) something we are trying to promote," Power said.


In a similar case last year, former rugby league international John Hopoate was banned by the Australian National Rugby League for 12 weeks after poking a finger up the backside of an opponent.
