Josh Gibcus injury updateThe Club will take a conservative approach with young defender Josh Gibcus’ hamstring injury after the youngster suffered a setback at training on Thursday.
Scans have revealed a strain in Gibcus’ right hamstring.
Richmond High Performance Manager, Luke Meehan said it was a frustrating injury after what had been a thorough rehabilitation process.
“Josh was closely working towards a return to play before unfortunately injuring his hamstring on Thursday.
“It’s not as significant as his injury in January, and is in a different spot, but given his young age and long future in the game, we will be taking a cautious approach with his recovery- prioritising the long term.
“We will get some rehab work into him over the coming weeks and be able to provide a further update from there.”
Senior coach, Damien Hardwick spoke of Gibcus’ talent on Thursday.
“He is a kid that we see as a 10–12 year player for our footy club so we're not going to push him when he's not ready,” Hardwick said.
