| Updated: June 4, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
Young forward van Rooyen (adductor) pulled up sore after the Demons' clash with St Kilda and didn't play against Fremantle, however the Demons are hopeful he will be fit to face Collingwood on King's Birthday. Hunter re-injured his calf against the Dockers and faces a 4-6 week stint on the sidelines. The luckless winger was plagued by the same injury across the summer and for the opening rounds of the season. Daniel Turner (calf) and Tom Fullarton (hamstring) both made successful returns from injury at the weekend, the latter at VFL level. - Alison O'Connor

Early prognosis
The Kangas have cleared co-captain Jy Simpkin (quad) and veteran Hugh Greenwood (Achilles) to play in Saturday's clash with the Eagles. But youngster McKercher remains sidelined and still doesn't have a definitive timeline for his return. Logue is finally expected to make his return from an ACL injury through the VFL within the next fortnight. – Riley Beveridge

| Josh Sinn | Collarbone | 4 weeks |
| Updated: June 4, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
The week off has come at a good time for Rozee who has missed three of the past four matches with hamstring and ankle problems. He should be right to return for Port's next match against Greater Western Sydney in round 14, while Rioli will likely be a test. – Michael Whiting

Pickett also pulled up sore and will miss the next 3-4 weeks. Shai Bolton (concussion), Dion Prestia (managed) and Tim Taranto (wrist) are all available, while Lynch will be back next week.

| Harley Reid | Suspension | Round 16 |
| Jake Waterman | Shoulder | Test |
| Updated: June 4, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
