Brisbane's upset AFL win over Carlton has proved an expensive afternoon for Lions defender Darcy Gardiner.
He is among four players who can accept $1000 fines for low-grade incidents during the weekend's round of AFL matches.
Gardiner was also fined $1000 for his involvement in a half-time melee at Etihad Stadium.
Essendon defender Mark Baguley, Hawthorn backman Ryan Schoenmakers and Gardiner were all charged with rough conduct.
Lynden Dunn was also offered a $1000 fine for kneeing Sydney veteran Adam Goodes.
The match review panel charged Gardiner, Brisbane brothers Dayne and Claye Beams and Carlton's Mark Whiley, Clem Smith and Patrick Cripps for their involvement in the half-time melee.
They can all take $1000 fines.
Western Bulldogs pair Jake Stringer and Michael Talia were penalised along with St Kilda's Nick Riewoldt, Sam Fisher and Maverick Weller for melee, also at halftime, in their Saturday match at Etihad Stadium.
Stringer can accept a $1500 fine because it is his second offence, while the others can take $1000 penalties.
Geelong key defender Harry Taylor was cleared of a match-day report for striking Collingwood spearhead Travis Cloke.
Likewise, GWS captain Callan Ward and Hawthorn Will Langford were let off their wrestling charges.
