Rookie listed Essendon ruckman Gach Nyuon has been suspended for two matches by the VFL Tribunal.

Nyuon was charged with misconduct following an incident in the Bombers loss to Coburg on Sunday.

The ban means Nyuon will miss matches against Footscray and Richmond.

Nyuon was named in the under 18 All-Australian side last season, before he was selected by Essendon with the fourth overall pick in the Rookie Draft.

The Bombers are currently fifth on the VFL ladder.
