Injury-plagued Sydney midfielder Taylor Adams has suffered another hamstring injury in his first game back in the VFL.
Playing against Southport on the Gold Coast, Adams came from the ground hurt in the first quarter on Saturday.
Sydney later confirmed the hamstring setback in a potentially career-ending injury.
Adams, a former GWS and Collingwood ace, has played just four games since the start of the 2025 season.
The 32-year-old has struggled with persistent hamstring injuries, dating back to the end of his time at Collingwood when he missed the Magpies' 2023 grand final win.
Adams moved to Sydney ahead of the 2024 season, but has been restricted to just 23 games.
In a further cruel blow, in January Adams was left unconscious after allegedly being assaulted at a licensed venue.
