Given Oliver's history, should he be fined for this?

To me, it looks like an intentional act of staging for a free kick. Unlike his previous misdemeanour, he had ample time to anticipate the collision, so I can't give him the benefit of the doubt (instinctive fast reactions are not always staging).
Look at the reaction of the Hawthorn player who hit him.
