There is no current timeline for a return over the pre-season but initially Hewett will spend time off legs for the next couple of weeks.
“Elijah had a big return-to-play session last Thursday and had a really good session. Unfortunately, he had a bit of foot awareness post-session, so we did some investigation,”
“There’s low-level bone stress, which is not in the same spot as he had his original injury.”
“With the time of the year, long-term athlete, we don’t want to take any risks with him so we’re going to take him off legs for a couple of weeks.” West Coast High Performance Manager Mat Inness.
