Star GWS defender Sam Taylor has been ruled out indefinitely after undergoing surgery on a ruptured testicle. Taylor suffered the injury during last week’s 22-point win over Port Adelaide. The two-time All-Australian defender wasn’t listed on the official GWS injury list on Tuesday, but the club revealed the news on X on Wednesday. A timeline will only be set on his return once he sees a specialist.
Sending our love to Slammer.” Taylor’s injury has come at a bad time for the Giants, whose season sits at the crossroads after posting just two wins from their past six games. GWS are fifth, but they are only one win ahead of the teams sitting from 9-12 on the ladder. The Giants face the ladder-leading Sydney Swans on Saturday. Taylor was widely tipped to get the job on Sydney spearhead Joel Amartey, who kicked nine goals against Adelaide last week.
