Xavier Savage will undergo ankle scans; he's likely out for Raiders' match against South Sydney. Jed Stuart may replace him.
Xavier Savage will have scans on his ankle on Tuesday to determine how long he's set to miss, with the Canberra Raiders hoping for the best-case scenario.
Scans will determine if Savage has a fracture or syndesmosis, but he's set to miss the Raiders' trip to Perth to face South Sydney this week.
Jed Stuart's the front-runner to come in for the Canberra flyer, with Raiders coach Ricky Stuart set to finalise his team on Tuesday.
Savage's right ankle got trapped under teammate Simi Sasagi in the Green Machine's 32-12 loss to Newcastle on Sunday with the winger coming off with nine minutes to go.
