Port Adelaide Defender Looking At “Extended Break” After Training Injury

Port Adelaide’s Hamish Hartlett will be on the sideline of an “extended” period after injuring his knee at training on Thursday.

“This is obviously a terrible blow for Hamish and the football club,” Davies said.

“Hamish had started the season well and we saw last weekend what a courageous and skilful player he is.

“It was an innocuous incident that caused the injury. He went to change direction and his leg gave way beneath him.

“We fear Hamish won’t be back on the field for some time but no doubt he’ll continue to contribute as a leader of our football club.”

The club said Hartlett will have scans to confirm the extent of the injury.
