Ex-Dockers player Yarran found dead

A former Fremantle Dockers AFL player has been found dead at a home in Perth.

The death of Shane Yarran, 28, at Seville Grove is not being treated as suspicious.

"A report will be prepared for the coroner," Western Australia said in a statement on Friday.

Yarran was in March acquitted of attacking a man with a broken bottle outside the Westfield Tavern in Camillo in July 2015, and awarded costs of $5500.

But he faced another legal fight over a separate charge after earlier this month pleading not guilty to attempted aggravated home burglary with intent.

Yarran had been battling a methamphetamine addiction but had been keeping fit and hoped to get back on the field with a WAFL club.

Yarran began rising through the ranks of professional football about five years ago, playing in Subiaco's 2014 premiership win then joining the AFL.
