Carlton youngster Ben Camporeale has been hit with a four-match ban in the VFL for an unusual rough conduct charge against Brisbane on Friday.

The incident happened during the last quarter at a centre bounce stoppage.

As the ball spilled to the ground after the two rucks contested for a hitout, Camporeale pushed Lion Deven Robertson, who cannoned into teammate James Tunstill.

The Lions players clashed heads and were both left sprawled out on the ground.

Play was stopped while trainers attended to the pair.

They both managed to walk off the field but were in a world of pain.

Robertson suffered a concussion and broken teeth from the incident, while Tunstill also entered concussion protocols.

The incident was graded as careless conduct, severe impact and high contact, meaning Camporeale can accept a four-match ban with an early plea.

The suspension will rule him out of AFL contention as well, delaying a potential senior debut.

Camporeale, the son of Carlton great Scott, was selected with pick No.43 in last year’s AFL draft.

He has yet to play a senior game for the club in his debut season.

Twin brother Lucas, who was taken with pick No.54 in the same draft, has played two senior matches this year.
