ADELAIDE has suffered a major blow with forward Trent Hentschel requiring an arthroscopy on his right knee which will sideline him for about a month.
Hentschel, who made his return to AFL football against Collingwood in round one after missing two full seasons with a major knee injury, experienced swelling in the joint in the Crows' 32-point loss to St Kilda on Friday.
Adelaide's senior medical officer Dr Andrew Potter said the 26-year-old would undergo an arthroscopy to remove debris from the joint.
“There is no obvious structural damage to the knee. But Trent visited his surgeon this morning and he recommended they inspect the joint and remove any debris that may be there,” Dr Potter said.
