Tom Browne has reported Conor McKenna will miss Essendon's clash with Gold Coast this weekend.
The speedster will head back to Ireland to attend a friend's wedding, Browne reported on Tuesday.
McKenna's travel plans were known well in advance by the Bombers and ticked off by the club.
The 23-year-old has starred off half back for the Bombers this season, playing every match and averaging a career-high 20 disposals a game.
He leads the competition in running bounces with 67 for the season, more than double the next best in Adam Saad and Bachar Houli with 32 each.
