Adelaide High Performance Manager Darren Burgess provided an update on Sunday.
“After initial assessment of Rory’s knee on Saturday night we feared this might be the case and unfortunately scans have confirmed it,”
“Obviously it is bitterly disappointing for both Sloaney and the team, he is one of our most important players and as our captain his influence on what we do is obvious.” Burgess said.
