Collingwood advises defender Jeremy Howe has undergone surgery today on his broken forearm after sustaining the injury during the third quarter of the Club’s Round One match against Geelong at the MCG.
General Manager of Football Graham Wright said:
“We are disappointed for Jeremy who suffered a compound fracture in his forearm during the game last night,” Wright said.
“He underwent scans last night and had surgery earlier today.
“Jeremy is a respected leader of our program who really puts his body on the line – our priority is making sure his welfare is supported through his recovery and we will do that.”
The Club will provide an update on Jeremy’s return-to-play timeline in due course.
