BRISBANE

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

 Tom Joyce Shin Test
 Mitch Robinson Hamstring TBC
 Updated: Tuesday, September 10

Early prognosis

Robinson has already been ruled out for Saturday's semi-final against the Giants. However, the club has left the door open for a return in the preliminary final should the Lions advance. - Michael Whiting 

COLLINGWOOD

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

 Dayne Beams Shoulder/Hip Season
 Mason Cox Eye Season
 Jordan De Goey Hamstring TBC
 Lynden Dunn Knee Season
 Levi Greenwood Knee Season
 Will Kelly Hamstring Season
 Tom Langdon Knee Season
 Nathan Murphy Neck TBC
 Sam Murray ASADA suspension Season
 Isaac Quaynor Foot TBC
 Ben Reid Hamstring Test
 Updated: Tuesday, September 10

Early prognosis

De Goey suffered another hamstring injury in the qualifying final win over Geelong and has travelled to Germany to be assessed by a world-renowned hamstring expert, with his best hope of a return being if the Pies make the Grand Final. Greenwood will be sidelined long-term after rupturing an anterior cruciate ligament against the Cats. The unlucky Murphy is recovering from another injury – nerve damage to his neck. It's also unlikely we'll see Quaynor again this season, while Reid is back in full training but faces an uphill battle to regain his place after another soft-tissue injury. The campaign is already over for CoxLangdonBeams and Dunn- Ben Collins

GEELONG

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

 Jordan Clark Elbow 1-2 weeks
 Jordan Cunico Ankle Season
 Mitch Duncan Knee 1-3 weeks
 Lachie Fogarty Ankle 1-2 weeks
 Cam Guthrie Calf Test
 Gary Rohan Knee Test
 Updated: Tuesday, September 10

Early prognosis

Duncan was spotted in a brace on Tuesday for his medial ligament injury and remains a long shot to play again in 2019. Rohan is more unlikely than likely to tackle the Eagles after re-injuring his knee late in the loss to the Pies. The forward, who missed rounds 21 and 22 with the same injury, was restricted to straight-line running with a heavily taped knee on Tuesday. Guthrie will need to prove he's fully over a calf on Thursday after returning to the main group on Tuesday after missing against the Pies. Clark increased his training loads on Tuesday but has again been ruled out, while Fogarty is at least another week away with his ankle. - Mitch Cleary

GREATER WESTERN SYDNEY

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

 Stephen Coniglio Knee 1 week
 Brett Deledio Calf TBC
 Matt Flynn Knee Season
 Jonathon Patton Knee Season
 Callan Ward Knee Season
 Updated: Tuesday, September 10

Early prognosis

Deledio won't play again this year unless the Giants make the Grand Final, and he can somehow rehab his troublesome calf after scans revealed damage to the tendon. Coniglio has been ruled out for this week but is running strongly and increasing his agility work, so the vice-captain could be fit for a preliminary final if GWS can topple Brisbane on Saturday night. - Adam Curley

RICHMOND

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

 Jack Higgins Brain bleed Season
 Alex Rance Knee Season
 Sydney Stack Ankle TBC
 Updated: Tuesday, September 10

Early prognosis

Stack has started running and is progressing well from surgery on a syndesmosis injury, but the Tigers are still reticent to put a timeframe on his return. Daniel Rioli has pulled up well from a rolled ankle suffered in the qualifying final win, which he played out. - Sarah Black

WEST COAST

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

 Brayden Ainsworth Hamstring Season
 Matthew Allen Concussion 1-2 weeks
 Jarrod Brander Hamstring Season
 Daniel Venables Concussion Season
 Updated: Tuesday, September 10

Early prognosis

Premiership skipper Shannon Hurn (hamstring), tagger Mark Hutchings (hamstring) and star ruckman Nic Naitanui (ankle) all got through the elimination final after injury concerns, while young tall forward Oscar Allen is available after some knee soreness. Half-back Jackson Nelson is also fine after a heavy head knock against the Bombers, leaving the Eagles in an enviable position with an almost fully fit squad to pick from for the semi-final clash with Geelong. - Travis King
