FREMANTLE coach Ross Lyon is confident the sexual harassment storm engulfing the club won't affect the players, saying there is no culture problem at the Dockers.

Last week, a News Corp article reported that a Dockers official had been accused of inappropriate behaviour towards a junior staffer, and that a secret financial deal was reached to put the matter to rest.

The reported harassment allegedly happened several years ago, and the AFL have since closed their investigation into the incident.

Fremantle chief executive Steve Rosich addressed the club's staff and player group this week about the controversy.

"He just reiterated to give clarity to the AFL's statement and the club's statement, and that's where it sits," Lyon said of Rosich's address.

"Because there's issues – whatever it would be – people sit around in corners and discuss things.

"But if you give clarity, clarity creates self-management and you move on, and we all sit in that basket."

Just hours after the newspaper report was published, Fremantle put up a good fight in a 31-point loss to Greater Western Sydney in Canberra.

Lyon is adamant the drama won't affect the players.

"We're really focused. Confidence comes from action," Lyon said before Saturday night's clash with the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium.

"I think we're playing as good a footy as we've played in a long time.

"We're excited about the journey we're on together as a club.

"The environment has never been better."
