STEPHEN Milne is set to miss St Kilda's historic Anzac Day clash in New Zealand after being banned for grabbing an opponent's face.
Milne has been offered a one-match suspension for misconduct "in that he he made unnecessary contact to the face" of Essendon defender Courtenay Dempsey.
The Saints goalsneak joined a stoush between Dempsey and Ahmed Saad in the final term of the clash at Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
The incident was assessed as reckless, low impact and high contact, worth 225 demerit points and a two-match suspension. Milne has no existing good or bad record and can reduce the penalty to a one-match ban with an early guilty plea.
Earlier, an altercation between Dempsey and Saad sparked an all-in brawl after the halftime siren.
Milne has been fined $3000 for his role in the melee. It is Milne's third melee offence.
Teammates Nathan Wright, Tom Simpkin, Jarryn Geary and Saad have been fined $1200 for a first melee offence.

Essendon players Tom Bellchambers, Michael Hibberd and Jake Carlisle face $2100 fines for second melee offences.
It is another blow to the Saints attack, which has already lost Beau Maister for up to six weeks with a fractured wrist.
The match review panel has also handed a two-match ban to Melbourne's Neville Jetta for a late hit on GWS midfielder Lachie Whitfield at the MCG yesterday. Watch the bump below.
Neville Jetta faces nervous wait for ruling on bump on Lachie Whitfield.
Richmond could be without defender Steve Morris for its trip to Perth to face Fremantle on Friday night after he was offered a two-match ban for a late bump on Magpie Jamie Elliott. The penalty can be cut to one match with an early guilty plea.
The bump incensed Collingwood president Eddie McGuire, who was commentating the match for Fox Footy. See his reaction HERE.
And Brisbane's Irish defender Pearce Hanley appears certain to miss his side's clash against Port Adelaide after he was hit with a one-match ban for striking Kangaroo Lindsay Thomas. Hanley's penalty cannot be reduced to a reprimand because of his poor record.
Lions midfielder Jack Redden can accept a reprimand for a bump on Ben Cunnington and Crows veteran Scott Thompson can accept a reprimand for rough conduct against Bulldogs defender Brett Goodes.
A charge against Roos forward Drew Petrie was thrown out.
