Senior coach Adem Yze was fearful following the game that it was a serious knee injury but remained hopeful.
Richmond confirmed a ruptured ACL for Lefau on Sunday.
“Football can be a cruel game sometimes, and for Mykelti, who has been in terrific form, this is an unfortunate way for his debut season to finish,”
“Mykelti has not put a foot wrong since he joined our AFL program in the pre-season, and we know he will attack his rehab with the same professionalism and energy that has held in such strong stead this season.”
“We will give him our support every step of the way and help him to return to action and his promising career in 2025.”
