Selkirk Roosters football manager Marg Richards said Hardy had broken team rules.
However, she was not prepared to elaborate any further on what Hardy had down to feel the wrath of the match committee and player leadership group.
Hardy is in his first season with the Roosters after graduating from the North Ballarat Rebels in the TAC Cup under-18 competition.
He has played in all four senior matches, making a significant impression with performances in the ruck, and at centre half forward and centre half back.
He told The Courier in the leadup to Sunday's heavy loss to Werribee that he was determined to get a second chance in an AFL draft after missing out last year.
Coach Gerard FitzGerald said Hardy had let down himself and the team.
