AFL: Richmond defender Dylan Grimes has undergone back surgery and will miss the rest of the season for the Tigers.
Richmond superstar Dustin Martin could be managed out of several matches in the second half of the season as the Tigers negotiate a series of short breaks between games.
“ will train and we’ll sit down with him later this afternoon and work out a plan,” Yze said.“He’s going to be one of those players who we’ve got to decide with … we’re starting to prepare for eight-day breaks and six-day breaks. Yze expected luckless spearhead Tom Lynch to return quickly after a two-week lay-off for a minor hamstring strain he suffered against Hawthorn, and defended the club’s call to bring him back from a hamstring tendon injury in his other leg before the mid-season bye.
“It was unfortunate that he’s had a little tweak on the other side. It’ll be probably a two-week lay-off … no doubt the volume of work he got in before that was really impressive, and we can’t wait to get him back out there.” “We’ll just see how he pulls up from this operation – hopefully, later in the year, he’ll be back on his feet and getting some training in, and then we’ll make that decision as a footy club.”
