Duffield could not resist throwing a "positive" comment on Harley's return.
And Harley Bennell’s former coach at Gold Coast, Rodney Eade, has wished him well in his first game for Fremantle after a two-year absence from AFL ranks.
“I hope his calf is not an issue, and that generally he knows it’s going to take hard work to be a successful AFL player,” Eade said on the AFL website.
“He’s just got to get a run, and hopefully next year he can become the player he should be.
“He’s very talented, has athletic ability, ball-handling skills, kicking.
“But he just thought he could do what he liked and there’d be no repercussions as far as moving him on. In the end we had to.”
