Adelaide AFLW Captain Chelsea Randall will miss the Round Five clash against Carlton after re-injuring her right hamstring on the weekend.

Randall injured her hamstring during the second quarter of the win against Melbourne at Norwood Oval on Saturday and took no further part in the game.

AFLW Head of Football Phil Harper told AFC Media it was disappointing for Randall and she would be on the sidelines for at least this weekend.

Harper said she did all the necessary training leading up to the match and ticked all the boxes before being named in the side that took on Melbourne. 

“She tested really well before the game, however a game is different to testing,” Harper said.

“She’ll probably be out for at least a couple of weeks but we don’t know the full extent yet.

 

“Chelsea definitely won’t be playing this week and possibly longer.

“We will know more once the results of her scan are known.”
