RICHMOND'S Bachar Houli will appear before the AFL Tribunal tonight charged with striking Carlton's Jed Lamb on Sunday.

The incident was assessed as being intentional high contact to the head, which when combined with a medical report from the Blues resulted in the AFL Match Review Panel sending the report directly to the tribunal. 

The tribunal will sit to hear Houli's charge at 5.30pm AEST.
