Geelong midfielder Jack Steven is in hospital after being injured in an incident on Saturday night, the club has confirmed.

“Jack is in hospital and recovering. The club’s concern is for Jack’s health and well being,” a Geelong statement read.

“The matter has been referred to police and until their investigations are completed the club will not be in position to offer further comment.”

The 30-year-old was traded to the Cats last October after a decorated 183-game career with St Kilda, where he won four best-and-fairest awards.

Steven didn’t play in Geelong’s round one loss against GWS in March before the AFL season was suspended.
