Richmond defender Josh Gibcus will have surgery today to repair his right upper hamstring tendon.

The injury suffered at training on Monday will see him unavailable for the early rounds of the 2023 AFL season. 

Gibcus, 19, played 18 games in his debut AFL season, including the Elimination Final loss to Brisbane.
