Hawthorn midfielder Jordan Lewis is free to play in Friday night's AFL preliminary final against Collingwood after the match review panel cleared him.

Lewis and Sydney opponent Ben McGlynn collided heavily as they chased a loose ball in the first term of last Friday's semi-final, which the Hawks won by 36 points.

The panel ruled the two players had their eyes on the ball and had no realistic alternatives to colliding with each other.

There will be no tribunal thisweek after the panel also cleared Carlton onballer Andrew Carrazzo for an incident involving West Coast star Daniel Kerr.

Carrazzo gave away a free kick when he made contact with Kerr, but the force used was not enough to warrant a report.
