RISING Gold Coast Suns star Harley Bennell faces two charges after a New Year's Eve brawl in Western Australia.
Bennell, 20, was allegedly with friends when a large fight broke out during New Year's Eve celebrations on the foreshore at his home town of Mandurah, south of Perth.
Police were called to the Smart St mall at around 2.15am to control a group of people fighting close to a local nightclub.
Bennell was arrested and taken to Mandurah police station, where he was charged this morning with disorderly conduct and failure to obey an order given by an officer and released on bail.
The Suns released a brief statement this afternoon confirming the incident.
"As this is a police matter the club is not in a position to make further comment," the statement said.
Friends of the footballer said he had been trying to break up the fight.
Bennell has played 36 matches for the Suns since being recruited from Perth club Peel Thunder with the No.2 pick in the 2010 national draft.
He had a breakout year with the Suns last year, finishing runner-up to superstar captain Gary Ablett in the club's best-and-fairest count.
Bennell is the second WA-bred player to get into trouble at home during the off-season break. Young Collingwood midfielder Marley Williams was charged with assault after an incident in Albany last week that left a man with a broken jaw.
