Geelong Captain Patrick Dangerfield will be sidelined for the short term after scans confirmed he has a low grade left hamstring strain.
Dangerfield sustained the injury in the early minutes of the third quarter in last Saturday’s match against the Adelaide Crows.
Geelong GM Football Simon Lloyd said, “Pat has been in fantastic form, so we are disappointed to lose him for the next few weeks.
“It’s positive news that it’s on the lower end of a hamstring injury, Pat has already commenced his rehabilitation program and will continue his strong leadership across our football program.”
