Troubled Fremantle midfielder Harley Bennell has suffered yet another calf injury and will not play in this week’s derby against West Coast, according to former Dockers star Paul Hasleby.

Speaking on Sportsday WA, Hasleby said Bennell had reportedly reinjured his troublesome calf while playing for Peel Thunder in the WAFL on the weekend.

After playing the last month or so in the WAFL, Bennell was widely expected to be selected by Fremantle for his first game of the season this week.

But that looks unlikely now and, given there are only four games remaining in the season, the out-of-contract Bennell will probably sit out the rest of 2018.
