HAWTHORN captain Luke Hodge will miss this Friday night’s clash with Richmond, after sustaining a knee injury in the Hawks’ loss to GWS Giants on Saturday.

Scans revealed Hodge has a lateral meniscus tear, which will see the skipper out of action for four to six weeks.

Hodge has played four games so far in 2016, after missing Round 2 and 3 with a fractured arm.

GM – Football Operations Chris Fagan will provide further detail in this afternoon’s BUPA Recovery Report.
