Hawthorn's AFLW captain Emily Bates has been ruled out for the rest of the season following a torn ACL sustained during a recent match against the Western Bulldogs.
Bates, who recently celebrated her 100th game, suffered the injury when her knee twisted awkwardly during a tackle. Scans confirmed the ACL tear and additional damage to her meniscus, necessitating surgery.
In addition to Bates, the Hawks will also be without Laura Stone due to a concussion for their upcoming match against North Melbourne. Daisy Flockhart is facing a late fitness test after a chest injury. Despite Bates' absence, she will remain involved in an off-field capacity as the team's captain.
