Ross Stevenson gives an update on his poor back

Ross Stevenson’s been missing from the early morning airwaves this week.

Tony Leonard has picked up the mic and filled in on 3AW Breakfast with John Burns.

Ross spoke to the boys this morning before heading in to have surgery on his back (with a doctor who’s a die-hard Hawthorn supporter).

‘All I would like to say in the time remaining is, go you mighty, mighty Hawks,’ he said.

All the best in your recovery, Ross!
