“He’s progressed really well and is now in the final stage of the concussion protocols, which involves completing a full team training session,” High Performance Manager Selwyn Griffith said. “If he gets through that, he’ll be cleared to play.”

“Ollie’s tracking really well. He’ll be back in full training this week, with the aim to be available for selection next week.”

“Petts was unwell last week, which meant his concussion protocol had to be extended slightly. Given his previous concussion earlier in the year, he’s progressing a bit slower through the protocols. “He’ll return to full training next week and should be available the following round.”

“He had a strong week on the track and completed some match-intensity level drills. “He’ll return to full training this week and we’re planning to fully reintegrate him into training next week.”

“Marty had his ACL repaired last week after previously injuring his biceps tendon. Once he’s off crutches, he’ll also require shoulder surgery. “But he’s recovering well and we’ll support him closely through both recoveries.”

"Shane McAdam is continuing to progress really well after coming out of the boot. He's in a focused Achilles and calf strengthening phase at the moment."

“Andy has had a great couple of weeks of his program,” Selwyn Griffith said. “He continues to work really hard on his lower body strength and power. “As a part of this current phase he’s begun to run.”
