A match day charge laid against Brisbane Lions midfielder Mitch Robinson has been thrown out by the AFL's Match Review Panel.

Robinson was charged for engaging in rough conduct against West Coast's Xavier Ellis.

The MRP said that: "Ellis stepped into Robinson¹s path and braced for contact.

"Robinson tried to minimise the contact by changing direction and it was the view of the panel that Robinson¹s actions were not unreasonable in the circumstances."

No further action was taken.
