Star midfielder Harley Reid is expected to be available to face GWS on Sunday despite pulling up sore after the round 22 clash with Collingwood.
Reid was involved in a number of physical contests throughout the game but has avoided any serious concern and will be managed through the week.
“Harley copped a solid knock against Collingwood,” High Performance Manager Phil Merriman said.
“We will nurse him through the week and expect him to be available on Sunday.”
Elijah Hewett will also be monitored closely after suffering a calf cork during the WAFL match against Subiaco on Saturday.
“Elijah received a nasty impact to his calf on the weekend,” Merriman said.
“He is sore, but he will be working around the clock to get himself ready to play this weekend.”
Jack Hutchinson is still pushing to return, with the utility expected to be available for selection after narrowly missing last week's clash.
“Jack just came up a little short last week, but we expect him to be available for selection this week,” Merriman said.
Mid-season recruit Oliver Francou continues to make progress after suffering a knee laceration in round 20.
“Oli has been focused on wound healing, which has been a priority, to which he is almost there,” Merriman said.
Tylah Williams' season has come to an unfortunate end after suffering a fractured tibia in the WAFL on the weekend,
“Unfortunately, Tylah fractured his tibia during the WAFL game,” Merriman said.
“The surgeon completed surgery on Sunday, and he is already up and walking.
“We expect Tylah to commence running at around six weeks, which should allow him to complete the majority of his off-season program.”
Jake Miles-Wrency is hoping to see out the remainder of the season after dealing with ankle and calf concerns.
“Jake rolled his ankle in the WAFL game last week,” Merriman said.
“As we were getting him going during the week, he reported some tightness in his calf.
“We will progress him through this week and plan for him to return in the last round.”
