Tom Lynch | Hamstring | TBC |
Wayne Milera | Foot | 1-2 weeks |
Ayce Taylor | Hamstring | 4-5 weks |
Updated: Wednesday, August 12 |
Early prognosis
Crouch won’t play against the Bulldogs on Sunday after a mishap at home delayed his recovery from his hamstring injury. Doedee and Lynch will also miss after suffering hamstring strains against Collingwood on Tuesday night. But in better news Rory Sloane has been cleared to face the Bulldogs after recovering from his hand injury. – Callum Twomey

Mitch McGovern | Hamstring | 1 week |
Harry McKay | Knee | Test |
Nic Newman | Knee | Season |
Jack Silvagni | Knee | 4-6 weeks |
Updated: Wednesday, August 12 |
Early prognosis
The Blues could miss Martin for up to a fortnight, having limped from the field during Sunday’s defeat to the Eagles with a calf injury. Cuningham (calf) and McGovern (hamstring) will also miss one more week, but Paddy Dow could be in line for a return from a knee problem for Saturday’s clash with the Dockers. McKay (knee) is also expected to play this week, but Silvagni (knee) and Kreuzer (knee) remain in doubt to return this season. – Riley Beveridge

Scott Pendlebury | Quad | 1-2 weeks |
Isaac Quaynor | Shin | 1-2 weeks |
Adam Treloar | Hamstring | 3-4 weeks |
Updated: Wednesday, August 12 |
Early prognosis
The big selection dilemma for the Pies remains their captain Pendlebury, who will undergo a fitness test ahead of Saturday’s clash with the Demons to determine whether he is available to return from a quad problem. They should regain both Elliott (ear) and Hoskin-Elliott (knee) for this weekend, but Quaynor (shin) remains another week away. Treloar is likely to miss up to a month with a hamstring problem. – Riley Beveridge

Jacob Townsend | Concussion | Test |
Updated: Wednesday, August 12 |
Early prognosis
The Bombers could regain Hooker against St Kilda on Sunday, while Townsend faces a test with his concussion from last week against Greater Western Sydney. Fantasia will not be ready to take on the Saints. The Bombers are desperate for Stringer to return in the forward line but he remains at least a couple of weeks away. – Callum Twomey

Darcy Tucker | Hamstring | Season |
Michael Walters | Hamstring | 1 week |
Hayden Young | Ankle | Season |
Updated: Tuesday, August 4 |
Early prognosis
After missing the impressive win against his old side Collingwood with concussion, Aish is a test for next Monday’s clash with Hawthorn. Hogan and Hill are also chances to take on the Hawks, but star midfielder Walters will miss another week with his hamstring injury. Sturt’s ankle concern has blown out from 1-2 weeks to TBC, while Hamling has finally been ruled out for the season along with gun draftee Young. – Chris Correia

Josh Jenkins | Back | Test |
Quinton Narkle | Hamstring | Test |
Updated: Thursday, August 6 |
Early prognosis
This list has shrunk after the returns of Joel Selwood, Tom Atkins and Rhys Stanley against the Roos. Narkle will be a chance to face the Saints having now missed four matches, while Jenkins is back in full training. Constable will be assessed after he was concussed late in the round nine loss to West Coast. Clark is making a quicker than expected recovery from his shoulder injury and could be in line for a return. – Mitch Cleary

George Horlin-Smith | Foot | 1 week |
Mitch Riordan | Knee | Season |
Matt Rowell | Shoulder | Indefinite |
Jeremy Sharp | Hip | 1 week |
Updated: Wednesday, August 12 |
Early prognosis
The only new problem for the Suns was last week’s debutant Sharp who has a slight hip complaint. It’s expected to be a short-term problem and he could be back in consideration for the match against Richmond on August 17. – Michael Whiting

Updated: Monday, August 10 |
Early prognosis
Former co-captain Davis faces a fitness test to be named for Thursday night’s battle with Sydney. The defender had scans which showed only minor damage after he played out the win over Essendon last week. Greene will miss this week with his hamstring injury but is eyeing a return against West Coast in round 13. – Callum Twomey

Todd Marshall | Thumb | 2-3 weeks |
Steven Motlop | Ankle | Test |
Connor Rozee | Heel | 1-2 weeks |
Dylan Williams | Groin | 3-4 weeks |
Updated: Wednesday, August 12 |
Early prognosis
The Power will put young gun Rozee on ice this week, already ruling him out of Friday night’s blockbuster clash with the Cats due to a heel injury. Ebert should return, having passed all concussion protocols, while Motlop is also a chance to feature after recovering from an ankle injury. Burton (quad) and Marshall (thumb) remain the best part of a month away. – Riley Beveridge

Dion Prestia | Ankle | 2-4 weeks |
Updated: Thursday, August 6 |
Early prognosis
The Tigers suffered no new injuries in the loss to the Power last start and will boosted by the return of Trent Cotchin for Monday’s clash against Gold Coast. Houli is also available after completing his two weeks of quarantine. Astbury underwent an arthroscopy on his troublesome knee last Wednesday, but will look to build up his running this week.

Dan Hannebery | Hamstring | 6-10 weeks |
Jack Mayo | Knee | Season |
Seb Ross | Calf | 1-2 weeks |
Jimmy Webster | Hamstring | 2-3 weeks |
Updated: Thursday, August 6 |
Early prognosis
Little has changed from last week with the Saints only making two unforced changes for Thursday night’s clash with Gold Coast. Hannebery has completed hamstring surgery and plans to join his teammates in the Queensland hub later in the season. Ross will have missed two matches with an ongoing calf complaint he suffered in the round eight win over Port Adelaide. – Mitch Cleary
PLAYER | INJURY | ESTIMATED RETURN |

Kaiden Brand | Groin | 3 weeks |
Lance Franklin | Hamstring | Indefinite |
Isaac Heeney | Ankle | Season |

Sam Naismith | Knee | Season |
Harry Reynolds | Shoulder | Season |
Ben Ronke | Back | 3-4 weeks |
Ryley Stoddart | Back | Indefinite |
Updated: Tuesday, August 11 |
Early prognosis
Kennedy and Brand are edging closer and should both resume skills training next week, then may be another fortnight away after that. The Swans haven’t provided a timeframe on when Franklin will be back and the likelihood of him sitting out the rest of the season is high. He is completing light skills at the moment. Colin O’Riordan (hip) and Michael Knoll (knee) returned from their respective layoffs in a scrimmage game last week. Sydney won’t play a practice match this week because it is serving a quarantine period in Perth. – Marc McGowan

Jack Redden | Quad | Test |
Liam Ryan | Hamstring | Test |
Nathan Vardy | Ankle | Test |
Daniel Venables | Concussion | Season |
Francis Watson | Knee | Season |
Updated: Thursday, August 6 |
Early prognosis
After missing two consecutive games with a fractured thumb, the added time between the Eagles’ next match should allow McGovern to play provided he gets through Saturday’s captain’s run. Ryan’s scans returned all clear, however he was reduced to running at training on Thursday and will be tested on Saturday. Redden is expected to be fit after missing the win over Geelong. The extra days should also have Vardy in consideration for minutes – most likely at scratch match level – however Jones has suffered a third hamstring setback. Edwards will be assessed after he was concussed early in his debut but is unlikely to play. – Mitch Cleary

Lachie Hunter | Personal | TBC |
Lin Jong | Ankle | 2-4 weeks |
Josh Schache | Groin | Test |
Matt Suckling | Hamstring | 2-4 weeks |
Updated: Wednesday, August 12 |
Early prognosis
Schache has had a faster than expected recovery from a groin issue and has been bumped from two to three weeks to a test. Duryea has had a horrible run with his quad this year but looks set to return to full training in a week or two, as he and Suckling start some top speed running. Cordy picked up a chest muscle injury at training. – Jourdan Canil
*Placed on the club’s long-term injury list

According to The Age today Gawn apparently has a PCL strain as well as having torn a muscle in relation to his upper back/shoulder. Even if he does get up for the game against Collingwood he’s not going to be 100%.
Also mentioned at half time during the bombers/suns game.
What’s up with Sturt..
Had season ending surgery today.
