Tim Taranto, back

"Tim developed a bit of lower back pain early in the game (Round 20). He's pretty tough, Tim, and he sort of battled along to half-time. We thought we'd try and get him to see if he could get going again in the third quarter, and he just wasn't able to. So, we subbed him out. He's pulled up pretty well from the game. At this stage we have to see how he trains on Thursday. So, he's a test."

Dustin Martin, back

"Dustin's been training pretty hard the last week or so. Again, he needs to train really strongly on Thursday, and we'll make a call on him then."

Toby Nankervis, concussion

"Toby's feeling really good and he's looking forward to playing again."

Jack Graham, hip flexor

"Jack turned the corner last weekend. He still needs to train really strongly on Thursday, and we'll make a call whether he's available."

Jack Ross, foot 

"(He's tracking) really well. It's probably been the last four or five weeks working really, really hard. He, at this stage, is going to be available for the VFL game after the bye in two weeks' time."

Tom Lynch, hamstring

"Lynchy's back into full training. We're going to put a couple of weeks' work into him and then we'll make a decision on what we do with him then."

Maurice Rioli and Marlion Pickett

"Both pulled up really well (from the VFL on Sunday). Marlion only played a half, and Maurice was available for three quarters. They won't be available for AFL selection this week, they're going to have a really hard training session on Saturday morning. It'll be the week after we're looking at (for their AFL returns)."

Liam Fawcett, back

"Big Liam's been charging around at training the last couple of weeks, which has been good to see. At this stage, we're looking for some game time after the VFL bye."

Ollie Hayes-Brown, concussion

"Ollie's really good. He's going to be in full training this week."

Campbell Gray, hamstring

"Campbell's going well. He's working really, really hard with one of our strength and conditioning coaches. He's still got a few weeks to go before we see him into training. But, we're hoping he might be available for the VFL finals if we make it."
