Caddy in the clear over umpire clash; Surgery an option for hamstrung Tigers young gun

Balta is not available for the election next week, because it is still exposed to curfew imposed by the Magistrate’s Judge to claim that he was guilty of being attacked after an out -of -season incident.

Nick Vlastuin was not indicated by the impact of Patrick Dangerfield, which caused the conflict of their heads. Both players played the game.

Lalor may need hamstring surgery

Sam Lalor may need surgery after a second hamstring injury for the season at the opening minutes of the return match against Geelong on Saturday.

In his first match since May 23, when he forced Hamstring against Essendon on the 12th round, he again injured Hamstring at the opening minutes of the 18 -year -old Saturday match.

The tigers are not expected to know the rescue program until Monday, when the injury emerges, but it is unlikely that Lalor will play again in 2025.

The selection of draft number 1 showed his great ability in his first 10 matches, but repeated hamstring injuries mean that the tigers should make a meticulous assessment of the problem to ensure that the problem is solved before the next appearance.

Coach Adem Yze said that Lalor’s injury straightened his teammates and coaches, but the club would support him through disappointment.

“I think the mechanism is difficult to train. So yes, it seems to be a bad thing, it really disappoints it,” he said.

“We should help him with this. We don’t want it again. We want it to have a long career without this little hiccup.”

Jacob Bauer suffered a suspicious ACL injury at Geelong on Sunday to overcome Richmond’s injury front on a bad weekend.

The better news for the tigers was the re -emergence of talented defender Josh Gibcus, and the best and greatest winning Jayden Short in VFL. Richmond has a talented young crop, Taj Hotton is approaching the election.
