The Bulldog has accepted the penalty for striking Raiders’ star Todd Grayson during the third quarter of Saturday’s clash at John Flower Oval.
He was charged by the video review panel.
Kindellan will miss Wodonga’s must-win match against Corowa-Rutherglen.
The Bulldogs have fallen eight premiership points and percentage behind fifth-placed Yarrawonga with five rounds remaining.
They will play the Roos, Albury, Myrtleford, Wangaratta and Lavington in the run home.
The derby threatened to erupt on several occasions with Raiders coach Daryn Cresswell upset with some of the tactics used by the home side.
“I was pretty disappointed with some of the stuff to be honest in the second quarter,” Cresswell said.
“I thought they dragged us down to their level.
“It was really disappointing.”
