Western Bulldogs defender Ryan Gardner is the latest player to become involved in a COVID drama, making him unavailable for round 22 selection after visiting a Tier 2 exposure site. </ Under current Tasmania rules, the 24-year-old was banned from entering the state after visiting the site, which prevented him from being selected for Saturday's game against Hawthorn.
« Was Gardy (Ryan Gardner) unfortunately at the end of a 14-day Tier 2 exposure so we couldn’t consider him, « coach Luke Beveridge told Fox Footy.
Gardner joins a list of players including Rowan Marshall (St. Kilda) and Toby Greene (GWS) who missed at least one game due to visiting a COVID-19 exposure site.
