VICTORIAN police have charged South Australian-born Geelong forward Brad Hartman with leaving the scene of an accident and failing to stop at a stop sign.

Hartman, 20, was returning home to Murray Bridge when he allegedly clipped a parked car but continued driving at St Peters in Melbourne late last Sunday.

Geelong CEO Brian Cook said, after Hartman arrived home he discussed the matter with his father and went to the Murray Bridge police station to report the incident on Monday. He was charged on Tuesday and a court date is yet to be set.

"We are disappointed and frustrated that Brad has been involved in this incident and believe there have been too many motoring related issues with our players in recent years," Cook said.

"Brad should have handled this differently by stopping and then providing his details at the time.

"As a club, it is clear that we need to reassess the manner in which we work with our players around their responsibilities as representatives of the Geelong Football Club.

"We will convene in the new year when the key people return to the club to develop a way forward in regard to this.

"The club has advised the relevant internal and external parties of the details of this incident."

Former basketballer who represented SA three times, Hartman was recruited by the Cats at pick 77 in the 2012 AFL national draft from Sturt junior grades.

The small forward debuted at Simonds Stadium in Round 13 last season.

Before moving to Sturt, Hartman played for Murray Bridge Ramblers
