RICHMOND utility Graham Polak has been discharged from hospital after being hit by a tram in Melbourne last month.
Polak suffered serious injuries in the incident and was put in an induced coma. He awoke from the coma two days later and was transferred from The Alfred Hospital to the Epworth Rehabilitation Centre on July 4.
Richmond doctor Greg Hickey said the 24-year-old will undergo extensive rehabilitation in the coming weeks.
Tigers coach Terry Wallace said Polak still had a long way to go in his recovery.
"We are thrilled that Graham has been able to show doctors... enough positive signs that he can return home," Wallace said.
"Graham still has a long way to go in his recovery, but this is considered another positive step."
