Carlton football club has said two of its players, Lachie Cowan and Will Hayward, required treatment in hospital on Sunday morning in “separate circumstances”.
The club released a statement on Sunday after reports in several media outlets that unnamed players had been taken to hospital by ambulance after a night out. Guardian Australia contacted Carlton seeking comment on the reports.
The statement said Cowan had “received medical treatment and underwent observation, before being discharged a short time later” but did not provide any more information about the circumstances.
Hayward was also admitted to hospital on Sunday morning.
“Will Hayward experienced a minor cut to the head after a fall, and admitted himself to hospital where he received stitches before being discharged,” Carlton said.
“The club has been in regular contact with both players, with priority for their wellbeing and both players have now received the necessary care relating to their separate circumstances.”
