Player | Injury | Estimated Return |
---|---|---|
Lewis Johnston | Knee | 6-8 weeks |
Sam Shaw | Hamstring | 5 weeks |
Taylor Walker | Knee | Season |
The Doc says: Once again, the Crows have no new injury concerns. Shaw may train this week but won’t be risked. Mackay was subbed out in the third quarter and faces an easy week before possible testing.

Claye Beams | Knee | Season |
Matthew Leuenberger | Thumb | 4 weeks |
Stefan Martin | Ankle | 3 weeks |
Jared Polec | Ankle | 3 weeks |
Daniel Rich | Scapula | 3 weeks |
Tom Rockliff | Quad | 1 week |
Patrick Wearden | Face | 1 week |
Stephen Wrigley | Knee | Season |
The Doc says: Rockliff should still be nursed carefully this week and across the Lions’ bye weekend.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |

Andrew Carrazzo | Calf | 1 week |
David Ellard | Calf | 4 weeks |
Nick Graham | Knee | 2 weeks |
Chris Judd | Hamstring | Test |
Kane Lucas | Hamstring | Test |
Andrew McInnes | Knee | Test |
Rhys O’Keeffe | Foot | Indefinite |
Robert Warnock | Knee | Test |
The Doc says: Judd was a late withdrawal on Saturday with hammy “tightness after training” but is unlikely to be risked given he also had a hamstring injury in pre-season. Carrazzo is closer to a full test this week after missing five games. Jamison was sore in the groin/hip at three-quarter time time and was subbed out. He will get treatment but should be ok to train. Ellard (bad calf tear in round seven) is unlikely to make senior selection before rounds 14 or 15.

Dayne Beams | Quad | 4-5 weeks |
Sam Dwyer | Groin | Available |
Alex Fasolo | Foot | Indefinite |

Jackson Ramsay | Wrist | 3 weeks |
Jordan Russell | Ankle | Available |
Dale Thomas | Ankle | Indefinite |
Alan Toovey | Knee | Season |
Clinton Young | Hamstring | 2-3 weeks |
The Doc says: Maxwell was reported as hammy soreness and subbed out from Friday night’s game as a precaution but the Pies are confident he is right. Goldsack is slowly recovering but not expected to return until after the bye. Dwyer and Russell need to impress at training after missing round 10. Russell is more likely to play. Cloke was a late withdrawal with a viral gastric upset but the club is confident he’ll be fit for Monday.

Courtenay Dempsey | Chest | Test |
Scott Gumbleton | Ankle | Test |
Ben Howlett | Shoulder | Available |
Michael Hurley | Ankle | Test |
Dyson Heppell | Ankle | Available |
Leroy Jetta | Ankle | Test |
Nathan Lovett-Murray | Arm | Test |
The Doc says: Dempsey’s injury looked serious but chest scans excluded a collapsed lung or rib fracture. He remains unlikely to play. Gumbleton and Heppell need more treatment on ankle injuries but may be available. Hurley will train but is not yet fully recovered from a left ankle re-injury from round nine and it will be risky to play him.

Kepler Bradley | Knee | Season |
Jesse Crichton | Hip | Test |
Jonathon Griffin | Knee | Season |
Sam Menegola | Knee | 10 weeks |

Hayden Schloithe | Calf | Test |
Michael Walters | Ankle | 2 weeks |
The Doc says: Silvagni was a late withdrawal when his ankle failed to recover but will be ok after treatment this week. Freo has a bye so Neale and Crichton are also possible returns for round 12.

Josh Caddy | Quad | Test |
Paul Chapman | Hamstring | Indefinite |

Hamish McIntosh | Achilles | Test |
Daniel Menzel | Knee | Season |
James Podsiadly | Knee, ankle | Test |
Jared Rivers | Knee | Test |
Travis Varcoe | Shoulder | 3 weeks |
The Doc says: Chapman’s hamstring tendon has flared again and he is now “indefinite” – a sign that recovery is unpredictable and treatment options have not been as effective as expected. He will miss at least another month. Podsiadly should train fully but Caddy will most likely not be pushed. McIntosh (knee/Achilles) and Rivers (knee scope) may return through the VFL. Smedts missed round 10 but is in the mix to return. Motlop is sore after the weekend and will be rested for round 11.

Harley Bennell | Hamstring | 2 weeks |

Jesse Lonergan | Hamstring | 4 weeks |
Brandon Matera | Ankle | TBC |
Steven May | Corked thigh | Test |
Zac Smith | Knee | Season |
Matthew Warnock | Arm | Indefinite |
The Doc says: Matera had nasty ankle sprain with both medial and lateral ligament damage. He has an internal (syndesmosis) tear and will have surgery, and is likely to miss 10- 12 weeks at best. Brown has new left knee soreness and may miss. Stanley (ankle) and Wilkinson (ankle recurrence) are both sore and will be nursed all week.Sumner had adductor injury and will need a test. Dixon (missed four) and Hunt (also four) are close to a return.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |

Chad Cornes | Knee | Indefinite |
Phil Davis | Back | 3 weeks |
Jonathon Patton | Knee | Season |
Andrew Phillips | Hamstring | 1 week |
The Doc says: Brogan was a late withdrawal with back tightness but is expected to train this week. O’hAilpin was subbed out in the third quarter with a right knee knock – the other knee to the one he’s had reconstructed – and will also need to pass testing.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |
---|---|---|
Cyril Rioli | Hamstring | 2 weeks |
Ryan Schoenmakers | Knee | Season |
Matt Suckling | Knee | Season |
Brendan Whitecross | Knee | 1 week |
Alex Woodward | Knee | Season |
The Doc says: Rioli was always likely to be missing until after the bye but should be resuming full training into round 12. No new concerns for the Hawks.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |
---|---|---|
Shannon Byrnes | Wrist | Test |
Mitch Clark | Foot | 4-5 weeks |
James Frawley | Hamstring | 4 weeks |
Jack Grimes | Shoulder | 4-5 weeks |
Tom McDonald | Shoulder | Test |
Jack Viney | Toe | 2 weeks |
The Doc says: Frawley injured his hammy late in the game and scans show a significant classic tear that will need at least four to five weeks to settle. Viney has missed three games with a foot stress fracture and should be available in round 13 after the bye.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |
---|---|---|
Tom Curran | Foot | Season |
Daniel Currie | Thumb | 2 weeks |
Kieran Harper | Ankle | Test |
Robbie Tarrant | Leg | 1-2 weeks |
The Doc says: The Kangaroos continue to have one of the smallest injury lists in the competition. There are no new injuries after their commanding performance against St Kilda on the weekend. Tarrant continues his slow progress but should be in contention after the bye.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |
---|---|---|
Dom Cassisi | Hamstring | 2 weeks |
Brett Ebert | Calf | 2-3 weeks |
Matthew Lobbe | Ankle | Available |
Jasper Pittard | Hip flexor | 2 weeks |
Jarrad Redden | Shoulder | TBC |
Brent Renouf | Knee | Available |
Jackson Trengove | Foot | 4-5 weeks |
The Doc says: Redden badly dislocated his right shoulder in ruck clash and there was some difficulty relocating the joint. He will consult with the club surgeon but will almost certainly have surgery and miss the rest of the season. Lobbe and Renouf are both ready for full fitness tests later this week and should be available.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |

Shane Edwards | Eye | Test |
Brandon Ellis | Hamstring | 1 week |
Dylan Grimes | Foot | 5-7 weeks |
Chris Knights | Knee | Season |
Ricky Petterd | Calf | Test |
Shane Tuck | Shoulder | 4-6 weeks |
Cadeyn Williams | Shoulder | Season |
The Doc says: Conca – who played in the VFL on the weekend – and Edwards and Petterd are likely to play after the bye while Ellis will be considered an outside chance. King looked uncomfortable with his right ankle at the end of Monday night’s game and was on crutches early in the week. He will benefit from the week off.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |

Sam Gilbert | Knee | 6-9 weeks |
Lenny Hayes | Calf | 2-3 weeks |
Daniel Markworth | Knee | Season |
Darren Minchington | Hamstring | 1-2 weeks |
Adam Schneider | Hamstring | Test |
Nathan Wright | Back | Test |
The Doc says: Schneider’s hamstring recovery should allow him into full training after the bye but he is more likely to return at VFL level. The result of Wright’s scan on his back is not yet available but he will be in doubt to play this week.
Player | Injury | Estimated Return |

Matthew Dick | Hamstring | Test |
Alex Johnson | Knee | Season |
Marty Mattner | Hip | Test |
Sam Naismith | Knee | Indefinite |
Sam Reid | Quad | 2-3 weeks |
Lewis Roberts-Thomson | Knee | 4 weeks |
Daniel Robinson | Knee | Test |
Gary Rohan | Leg | Indefinite |
Rhyce Shaw | Abdomen | Indefinite |
Tommy Walsh | Hamstring | Season |
The Doc says: Shaw has had a setback in his recovery and is now set to potentially miss another four to six weeks. Walsh had the most severe hamstring injury possible with complete separation of three tendons from the pelvic bone. He will require surgery to repair the hamstring attachment and will miss the remainder of the season. He should return to full performance in 2014 barring any complications.

Fletcher Roberts | Quad | 3-4 weeks |
Koby Stevens | Quad | Test |
Tom Williams | Shoulder | TBC |
Easton Wood | Hamstring | 4 weeks |
Tom Young | Calf | 3-4 weeks |
The Doc says: Williams badly re-dislocated his right shoulder – the same one he had operated on in 2012 – and the Dogs will decide on surgery later in the week. The Dogs have the bye this week and Cooney, Stevens and Boyd are expected to be available for round 12.

Dixon could play against North this week!
From GC Website today:
The SUNS’ casualty ward is growing longer and there’s not much relief in sight. Ruckman Charlie Dixon (ankle) is the most likely of the injured brigade to return against North Melbourne on Saturday night, but must complete a full week of training. Karmichael Hunt (hamstring) is a chance to return through the reserves, while Harley Bennell (hamstring) is taking longer to recover than expected and may not be back until after the round 13 bye. Brandon Matera’s ankle injury, sustained in the loss to Geelong on Saturday, might give a chance for Liam Patrick to return to the seniors after a long hamstring lay-off of his own. – Michael Whiting
who’s the Doc.
clap, clap (standing ovation)
