Brian Lake won't be fined or banned by Hawthorn despite his boozy night out which ended up with him spending four hours in the cells and copping a police penalty notice.

The Hawks slammed Lake's behaviour as "unprofessional" after he and his wife Sharron were arrested in Sorrento, Victoria, on Saturday night.

The pair spent time in custody and each received a $563 infringement notice.

The AFL website says Lake will work on a plan to help victims of the Tasmanian bushfires and take part in a Hawthorn community program.
