Star Crow Matt Crouch has undergone further surgery on his troublesome groin.<\/p>\n
The Adelaide midfielder missed all of season 2021 after off-season hip surgery led to groin soreness, prompting surgery in May.<\/p>\n
"After seeking further medical advice the decision was made for the on-baller to have more surgery," the Crows said in a statement.<\/p>\n
"The operation was to alleviate soreness and a timeline of Crouch's return to running will become clearer with his rehabilitation in coming weeks, as well as further consultation with the surgeon."<\/p>\n
