RICHMOND hopes Dylan Grimes will be available for Round 1 next season after surgery on his cursed hamstring.
Grimes went under the knife today after hurting his left hamstring for the third time this year. It is understood he suffered a small split in the tendon.
Grimes, who had been firing in pre-season training, pulling up sore at training last Friday.
He is the only Richmond player not taking part on a training camp in Cairns.
Grimes, 21, has played just 17 games but is seen as a key to the Tigers' young backline.
He has been plagued by hamstring injuries, travelling to Germany for treatment by soft-tissue expert Dr Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt this year after injuring his left hamstring twice.
In 2011 he tore the hamstring tendon in his right leg.
"Given Dylan's history with hamstring injuries, we believe surgery was the best option," Richmond's elite performance manager Peter Burge said.
"We won't know the extent of his recovery time until it settles from the surgery.
"Despite the setback, Dylan is keen to start his rehabilitation and is hopeful of being ready for the start of the 2013 season."
Grimes tweeted today: "Just about to go under the knife.. Thanks everyone for the support, it has been so overwhelming! Can't wait to see the boys back in melb!"
