GOAL umpire Courtney Lai will have surgery on Thursday to repair damage to his knee suffered in a sickening clash with Bulldog Liam Picken on the weekend.
Lai tore both his anterior cruciate ligament and medial ligament on Saturday when Picken, who tried in vain to smother a goalsquare shot by Fremantle's Michael Walters, fell across his left leg.
Lai, a doctor by trade, is expected to need six to nine months worth of rehabilitation on the knee.
The AFL confirmed today that Lai would not officiate again in 2013, but would return for the 2014 season.
Lai has umpired 24 games since making his debut in 2011.
