Panthers Confirm Double Knee Injuries, Provide Update on Garner’s Recovery
The Penrith Panthers have officially confirmed that rising star Jack Garner has suffered injuries to both knees, dealing a significant blow to the club’s forward depth. The club revealed in a statement today that scans confirmed ligament damage in both knees following Garner’s awkward fall during last week’s match.
Garner, who had been showing promising form this season, is expected to be sidelined for several months as he undergoes a comprehensive rehabilitation program. Club medical staff are working closely with orthopedic specialists to determine the best course of treatment, which may include surgery.
“Jack’s a tough competitor, and we’re confident he’ll approach recovery with the same determination he brings to every game,” said Panthers head coach Ivan Cleary. “We’ll support him every step of the way to get him back stronger.”
The injuries come at a challenging time for Penrith, who are already navigating several key player absences. However, the team remains optimistic, with young talent ready to step up in Garner’s absence.
Fans and teammates have rallied behind Garner on social media, sending messages of support. The club has promised to provide regular updates as his recovery progresses, aiming for a potential return later in the season.
