Richmond youngster Jacob Bauer has suffered a suspected ACL injury in Sunday's VFL contest against Geelong.
The Tigers ventured down to GHMBA Stadium for the reserves match-up, and Bauer, who has been playing in the seconds recently, unfortunately, went down with a heartbreaking injury.
The 22-year-old has played nine VFL games this year, including the past four, but has featured five times under Adem Yze.
It continues the wretched injury run Richmond is currently dealing with, attempting to mend.
Jacob Bauer is out for the rest of the game with a suspected ACL injury.

Judson Clarke, Taj Hotton, Tylar Young, Josh Gibcus and Mykelti Lefau all tore their ACLs in the past 18 months, with all making a return this year.
However, Clarke re-injured his knee, while Lefau hurt his calf upon his AFL return.
Hotton and Young are making their comebacks through the VFL and will be looking to join Yze's side.
Reigning Pick 1 Sam Lalor might also be ruled out of the remainder of the season after he injured his hamstring in the loss to Geelong on Saturday.
Lalor just returned from the hamstring injury he sustained during the Dreamtime at the G clash, and could now struggle to see the field in 2025.
More to come.
