Pair fined for fiery Giants-Magpies melee

AFL match review officer Michael Christian has applied three fines and no suspensions after assessing the semi-final weekend.

GWS ruckman Rory Lobb and Collingwood midfielder Taylor Adams have copped AFL fines for the fiery melee that erupted on the stroke of halftime in their semi-final at the MCG.

Lobb can accept a $1500 sanction for a second offence of engaging in a melee and Adams $2500 for a third offence.

Toby Greene's Saturday night to forget was made worse with a $2500 fine for engaging in rough conduct against Adams in the second quarter of the Giants' 10-point loss.
