After being named yesterday to make his debut for the Brisbane Lions this weekend, Sam Skinner has had an unfortunate setback.

The 19-year-old hyperextended his knee at training yesterday. The swelling this morning has not subsided and the Lions Medical Team have made the decision to rule Skinner out for the match.

An update will be provided on Skinner’s injury in the coming days.

In other news, Lions defender Marco Paparone had surgery for his hamstring injury yesterday. More info in next week's Recovery Report.
