Richmond’s Physical Performance Manager Peter Burge provides Richmond Media with the latest injury report, brought to you by Victor Sports.
Kamdyn McIntosh, ankle
"Going back to the Gold Coast camp, Kamdyn was in an incident where he got his ankle caught and was twisted. At the time, it wasn't looking great, he did a little bit of damage around his syndesmosis in his ankle. He has had previous surgery on that same ankle which has probably saved him this time, and a longer-term injury has turned into hopefully a four to five-week injury. Right now, he's back running at about 90 to 95 per cent and we're looking to integrate him back into the skills program sometime next week…He's probably unlikely for the Marsh Series 1, but the second game in Wagga is a real possibility for him."
Jack Graham, shoulder
"Jack’s resumed full contact training this week. He was doing a little bit last week, has done a little bit more this week and next week we'll do absolutely everything. We're targeting the second Marsh Series game for Jack Graham to return to the team."

Toby Nankervis, adductor
"Toby had surgery back in the off-season on his groin and it's been a really slow, steady progression over the pre-season. Toby’s just starting integrating into some football training in the last two weeks. We haven’t reached full training status yet but we're looking to get closer to that next week. At this stage, I'd say he's less likely for Marsh Series 1, and more likely for the second game."
Jake Aarts, groin/hip
"Jake has been managing some groin and hip issues over the off-season and has had a progression over the pre-season. He’s resumed close to full training in the last two weeks and he’ll be available for some match practice over the next two weeks."
Shai Bolton, shoulder
"Shai had off-season surgery and he was no contact for the majority of the pre-season. He’s been in full contact training now for the last two weeks so he’s available for selection once the games start."
