02:35

Dustin Martin, hamstring awareness

"We made the decision during the game to take Dustin off the ground, given his injury history and the six-day break. We're just going to monitor how he recovers off the game and make a decision on Wednesday and see if he gets through training with regards to playing this week."

Jayden Short, calf

"Jayden's been battling a bit of a calf problem on and off for the last couple of weeks. We're going to make a decision now to not play him this week and get him to do some strong rehab training on it, and get himself right for the rest of the season."

Jacob Hopper, knee

"It was pretty ugly, he's actually pretty lucky. Jacob's experienced a little bit of joint soreness in his knee and we're going to monitor him on Wednesday and see how he recovers and make a decision. He's probably doubtful at this stage, but we'll see how he is on Wednesday."

Tom Lynch, corky

"Lynch copped a pretty heavy knock. Given how important he is to us and his limited prep, we thought it would be best to get scans. But, he's okay and he'll be available this week."

01:00

Robbie Tarrant, hip 

"Robbie had a really good session on Saturday morning and seems to have turned the corner. We'd like to give him a couple of good weeks of training before we play him, but we're getting some improvement and hopefully he'll be available in the next week or two."

Ivan Soldo, foot

"Unfortunately, he's developed a little bit of plantar fasciitis. Given how big and heavy he is, we're going to make sure we get this right and he is unavailable for the short-term at this stage; possibly medium-term."

Josh Gibcus, hamstring

"Josh is over the issues he had with his wound now. He's slowly progressing and is coming along really well. We'll have more of an update in a couple of weeks once he starts running a bit faster."

Tom Brown, wrist

"Tom's been training non-contact. He has an appointment with his specialist next week and will probably get another scan on his arm, and hopefully he'll get good news and he'll be available next week or the week after."

Kaleb Smith, foot 

"(He's progressing) really well. He's running outside. It's still early days (but) he's building a base again and we'll have a bit more of an update in a couple of weeks."

Seth Campbell, groin load

"Seth's going really well, he's back into training. As long as he trains really well this week, he'll be available this week to play which will be exciting."
