NORTH Melbourne has lost another key player to suspension for its Round 1 clash against Collingwood.

Defender Scott McMahon must sit out the match with veteran Brent Harvey after accepting a one-game penalty for striking.

McMahon, who played 17 games last season, was charged by the match review panel for striking Geelong's Jordan Murdoch in Saturday's NAB Cup match at Simonds Stadium.

Harvey will miss the first six rounds after he was reported in the Kangaroos' elimination final loss to West Coast last year.

Essendon's Heath Hocking is in the clear after a report for a front-on bump on GWS Giants Tomas Bugg was thrown out.

The match review panel decided that the force used by the Bomber was below that to be a reportable offence.

Giants' gun midfielder Toby Greene also has no case to answer for contact to Bomber Brendon Goddard that was also determined to be insufficient force.
