He has the range of movement back and he was able to start some activities on Tuesday but will not participate in contact training during Wednesday’s main session.

Brodie Grundy has been given extra time to train his ruck and centre bounce work to set him up for success upon his return with coaches to assess how many minutes he needs to play to reach optimal match fitness.
Jordan De Goey and Harvey Harrison have been rehabbing together one-on-one and doing some contested work.
They both completed solid training sessions late last week and completed a match simulation on Sunday morning with “flying colours.”
While they have not been cleared to play yet – main training on Wednesday will be the final hurdle – our high performance team is confident they will both be available if they get through match play.
Arlo Draper had delayed concussion symptoms that were picked up last week and he is now in the minimum 12-day concussion protocols.
He will be unavailable for selection this week.
Jack Madgen was able to do some ball work on Tuesday and will get some contact training under his belt on Wednesday which will determine his availability.

* Interim coach Leigh Adams and a number of Kangaroos players have tested positive for COVID – 19 in the early stages of this week, with the club pushing its training program back 24 hours in order to get on top of the potential outbreak within the club.
With four players currently sidelined with the virus, White says a number of factors come into consideration in regards to their availability this weekend.
“Those players that contracted the COVID virus over the course of the trip to Tasmania are at home isolating currently with our club doctor monitoring their individual responses and symptoms through daily check-ins,” White said.
“Their considerations for game availability this week will be assessed based off multiple factors including their symptoms, ability to absorb exercise during the week, recent training history and preparation leading into game day after they clear isolation.”

Any news on which North players have covid?
The club have decided not to name the players who have tested positive.
The only two identified are Paul Curtis and Callum Coleman-Jones by Fox footy.
Never thought I would say this at this stage of the season, but….
Get up, Redman!
