ESSENDON duo Conor McKenna and Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti have escaped suspension for separate incidents in Thursday night's win over Greater Western Sydney.

McKenna was charged with striking Giants forward Jeremy Finlayson, but can accept a $2000 sanction with an early plea.

Match Review Officer Michael Christian judged the incident as intentional conduct and low impact to Finlayson's body.

McDonald-Tipungwuti can also accept a $2000 fine with an early plea for his rough conduct against midfielder Jacob Hopper.

The pair will both be available for the Bombers' clash with Sydney next week at the MCG.
