Adelaide Crows defender Josh Worrell is set to miss several matches after he underwent surgery today for a wrist injury suffered in Sunday's draw with Brisbane.
It was only the third draw in Adelaide's history, reigniting debate over the implementation of extra time as they split the points with the Lions.
Crows star Izak Rankine said he was left with "a bit of an empty feeling" after the game.

"I would like an official outcome of the game," he said.
"You know, one winner, one loser."
It was the fourth time this season Adelaide's fate has been decided by a goal or less and only once has it come out on top.
Matthew Nicks said his players "ball use wasn't where it needed to be" last night.
"We're playing some solid footy at the moment but we've still got some work to do to get over the line in games like that," he said.
Despite the disappointment of the draw, Rankine's individual performance was a winner for the Crows, with 24 touches and three goals.
"Me going into midfield is sort of creating a bit of havoc and a bit of spark in there. So I'm happy going in there a bit more," Rankine said.
Meantime, reigning premiers Collingwood are facing a string of injury concerns ahead of their upcoming match against Adelaide.
Jeremy Howe, Jamie Elliott, Jordan De Goey, Tom Mitchell, and Brody Mihocek are all doubtful to play.
