Quote:HAWTHORN premiership captain Luke Hodge has been caught drink-driving only days from the AFL finals series.
The Herald Sun understands Hodge had several beers at a social function on Thursday night then was stopped by police driving home.
Hodge was already suspended until Hawthorn’s first final after a two-match ban for high contact on Port Adelaide’s Chad Wingard.
He has been fined $450 and lost 10 demerit points after blowing 0.068 in an embarrassing incident for one of the AFL’s stars.
The 31-year-old All-Australian will not be punished further by the Hawks after alerting the club immediately and co-operating with police.
It is understood Hodge believed he would be comfortably under the limit given he had stopped drinking some time before getting behind the wheel.
