Star Sydney duo Lance Franklin and Dan Hannebery will both miss this Saturday night’s clash against North Melbourne at the SCG.
Franklin (bruised heel) and Hannebery (groin) were sidelined for the Swans’ win over Geelong at GMHBA Stadium, and have once again been ruled out.
Coach John Longmire told Channel Seven’s Talking Footy that the Swans medical team had made the call on Monday afternoon.
“This afternoon the medical guys ruled them both out so they are not playing this week," Longmire said.
"Hannebery has a slight tear in his groin so he missed last week, will miss this week and we will see what he is like next week."
Franklin has been put on a heavily-restricted training program.
He has managed to play several games since sustaining the injury in Round 1, but the Swans want to give him every chance to fully recover.
