FREMANTLE midfielder Anthony Morabito's future is hanging in the balance after he again hurt his twice-reconstructed left knee at training this morning.
Morabito was driven from Fremantle Oval by coach Ross Lyon in dramatic scenes after he injured the knee when tackling new recruit Tanner Smith in a training drill.
The 21-year-old went for scans and the Dockers expect to know the results by 2pm.

Club medical staff who viewed footage of the incident were unsure whether Morabito had re-torn his anterior cruciate ligament.
Morabito grabbed at his left knee before slumping to the ground on all fours and put his head in his hands.
Dockers forward Michael Walters urgently signalled for attention for his stricken teammate, who was able to walk off the ground unassisted but went straight into the rooms.
Minutes later, Morabito was driven from the training facility.
"We can confirm obviously he's injured his knee," Fremantle football operations manager Chris Bond said.
"He's gone straight away to go and get some scans done and we're expecting the results of those scans in one or two hours and we'll be able to give everybody a true reflection of exactly what's happened there.
"It's obviously a concern with Anthony's history. We'll get those results straight away and then we'll work out an action plan from there.
"Anthony was tracking very well so we're hoping for the best at the moment and we'll wait and see."
Dockers forward Michael Walters urgently signalled for attention for his stricken teammate, who was able to walk off the ground unassisted but went straight into the rooms.
Morabito played 23 games for Fremantle during the 2010 season but has not appeared at AFL level since, with the midfielder twice tearing his left ACL.
The young Docker had been targeting a return early in the season.
He has been mentored by coaching great David Parkin during his comeback.
