Two Geelong players have been charged and offered sanctions, one for striking and the other for rough conduct, but Hawthorn's Josh Gibson has been cleared by the AFL match review panel (MRP).
Geelong's James Parsons has been offered a two-game suspension for an elbow to the head of Hawks veteran Luke Hodge in the Easter Monday match.
Parsons' teammate Sam Menegola can accept a one-match ban for a dangerous tackle, also on Hodge.
The MRP assessed Gibson's bump on Cats defender Tom Ruggles before deciding no further action would be taken.
Essendon defender Conor McKenna will miss the Anzac Day blockbuster against Collingwood after accepting a one-game ban.
The 21-year-old has elected not to challenge his suspension for a high bump on Adelaide youngster Riley Knight.
Greater Western Sydney star Tony Greene accepted a $1000 fine for striking Port's Dan Houston, as did West Coast forward Mark LeCras for rough conduct on Sydney's Aliir Aliir.
Geelong's Parsons faces certain suspension for what his coach Chris Scott labelled "a technical deficiency".
"I've got absolutely no qualms about his intent," Scott told Fox Footy's AFL 360.
"He's not the sort of player who would deliberately go out to do that - it's clearly a technical thing.
"It is an awkward feeling when you've decided that you'e not going to tackle but then you're clearly wrong-footed and you're stretching to make contact.
"When you're going in to bump and you think you're going to make contact cleanly then you're a little bit wrong-footed you tend to reach and it's easy for the elbow to come up.
"He's going to pay a price but we've just got to make sure that he's better for it longer term."
The MRP assessed the first eight games of round four on Monday and cleared North Melbourne captain Jack Ziebell over his bump on Travis Cloke.
Cloke will be sidelined for four to six weeks after suffering broken ribs as a result of the collision during the fourth quarter of the inaugural Good Friday game.
The review panel deemed Ziebell's bump as "not unreasonable".
