A repeat offender when it comes to clumsy bumps, Pickett found himself in trouble after collecting Moore high during the Demons' 46-point defeat on Friday night.
Moore did not immediately come from the field, but was later subbed out with concussion.
Match review officer Michael Christian graded the incident as careless conduct, severe impact and high contact.

Collingwood enforcer Brayden Maynard, loudly booed by Demons supporters every time he touched the ball in a reminder of his infamous incident with Angus Brayshaw, immediately remonstrated fiercely with Pickett after the incident.
Pickett missed Melbourne's first game of this season after being banned for a high bump on Patrick Cripps in last year's semi-final loss to Carlton.
The 23-year-old also sat out one game after running into Adelaide's Jake Soligo in Gather Round.
Given his poor record and Moore's concussion, there appears little chance of the Demons being able to even downgrade the charge.
It was one last frustrating incident to end a difficult season for Melbourne, on and off the field.
