It has been two weeks since Papadopoulos spat at Sydney FC's Matt Simon and a week since he fronted a disciplinary and ethics committee hearing, but the Roar defender still hasn't discovered his punishment.

It is likely to be handed down on Friday but Aloisi said it was far too long for Papadopoulos to have to wait.

"I don't want to talk any more about it. It's gone too long," Aloisi told reporters on Friday.

"It happened two weeks ago. I spoke about it straight after the game.

"It's very frustrating for Avraam. He's disappointed, he's embarrassed in what he ended up doing and he just wants to move on from it.

"You can't move on when they haven't actually handed out the amount of games he's going to get.

"I've got other things to worry about as well."

Papadopoulos has already served the automatic one-match ban that came with his red card for the incident.

But he is expected to be suspended for a minimum of at least five more games and possibly longer.

The A-League's judiciary was supposed to hand down their verdict after the former Greek international's hearing last Friday but chose to reserve their determination.

The delay is reportedly because the chairman of the three-person committee is a volunteer and "other commitments" have gotten in the way of setting the length of the suspension.

"We haven't heard anything back from the committee. Hopefully we find out today what the sentence is," Aloisi said.

The Roar's defensive stocks have been further stretched in Papadopoulos' absence with Jade North (groin) set to miss Saturday's clash with Wellington Phoenix, while Luke DeVere is already sidelined with a long-term knee injury.
