Hawthorn superstar Lance "Buddy" Franklin has reportedly been caught speeding 40km/h over the speed limit yesterday afternoon.

According to radio station 3AW this morning, Franklin was detected at 90km/h in a 50km/h zone in Hodder Street, Brighton East.

Officers from the Moorabbin traffic management unit reportedly detected Franklin driving a car that was not his own. He was fined $599, lost his licence for six months and received six demerit points, according to 3AW.

Comment was being sought from Franklin and the club.

Victoria Police confirmed a 25-year-old Brighton East man was caught at an alleged speed on 90km/h in a 50 zone, and confirmed the driver was fined and lost his licence.
