Lions defender Joel Patfull was today cleared of a rough conduct report from Friday night's match against St Kilda.

The match day report laid against the Patfull for engaging in rough contact against St Kilda’s Alistair Smith was assessed by the Match Review Panel today and no further action was taken.

Meanwhile, Ash McGrath has been charged with misconduct in that he pulled the hair of St Kilda's Tom Simpkin during the second half of last Friday's NAB Cup match.

McGrath accepted a $900 sanction with an early plea.

A first offence for misconduct and hair pulling is a $1200 sanction. However, an early plea reduced the penalty by 25 per cent to a $900 sanction.
