Harley out for 6 weeks
Finger sidelines HarleyGeelong skipper Tom Harley will be sidelined for up to six weeks after undergoing hand surgery on Monday.
Harley suffered a ruptured tendon in his left hand in Sunday’s clash with the Western Bulldogs. He visited a specialist today and was immediately scheduled for surgery.
“There was a chance that Tom could have battled through the season with the injury, but the specialist felt he would need to have it operated on before the end of the season so the best decision was to have it done now,” Geelong’s general manager of football operations Neil Balme said.
“Obviously he’s disappointed, as we are, but injuries are part of the game and we just have to deal with it.”
The other major concern coming out of the game was a shoulder injury sustained by defender David Johnson. He will have scans on the shoulder today.
This is a big blow for the side as it leaves a gap for either Sam Hunt, Playfair or Spencer to come in. All who are no where as reliable as Tom Harley. Other effects is Cameron Ling is almost certain to be captain over this period. Whether he is the man for the job is yet to be seen as in my book he'd be on the fringe of our best 22 at the moment.
