Ruckman Shane Mumford will miss Greater Western Sydney’s game against Adelaide on Sunday after having knee surgery.

Mumford was a late withdrawal from the Giants’ clash with the Western Bulldogs. After the game, coach Leon Cameron revealed the star recruit had undergone a minor operation.

"We thought it was just general soreness. Unfortunately, with 'Mummy' he had a very sore knee and he had a very sore shoulder," Cameron said.

"But his knee's really blown up and he's been operated on today actually, so we had to pull him out late. It's a very, very minor operation, so he's probably going to miss one or two weeks.”

Young livewire Will Hoskin-Elliott is also in doubt toe the clash with the Crows. Hoskin-Elliott was subbed out on Saturday with a leg injury. Defender Josh Hunt also left the field late in the game after appearing to injure his knee landing awkwardly following a marking contest. But Cameron said he believed Hunt had merely suffered a "corky".
