The Canberra Raiders report Noah Martin will undergo ankle surgery, sidelining him long-term, while another player misses one game.
The Canberra Raiders have issued an alarming injury report ahead of their round 9 matchup against the Gold Coast Titans, revealing that one player will be sidelined for an extended period while another will miss just one game.
Noah Martin is facing a lengthy recovery after the Raiders announced he will undergo surgery on both ankles due to separate syndesmosis injuries sustained during last week's encounter with the Wests Tigers.
The promising young player is scheduled to meet with a specialist this Friday, and surgery is planned shortly thereafter.
This dual procedure casts uncertainty over his return timeline, as syndesmosis injuries are often known for requiring significant recovery time.
