Canberra Raiders face triple injury setback as Albert Hopoate likely out for season with ACL injury.
The Canberra Raiders have suffered a triple injury blow, with Albert Hopoate likely facing a season-ending injury.
Hopoate, who can play multiple positions in the backline, lost his spot to Savelio Tamale this season.
Tamale's strong form kept Hopoate in the NSW Cup where he sustained a suspected ACL injury.
The injury will require surgery and a recovery period of between nine and twelve months, ruling him out for the rest of the season.
