PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Darcy Fogarty	Shoulder	Test
Jordan Gallucci	Achilles	Season
Wayne Milera	Foot	3 weeks
Rory Sloane	Hand	3-5 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

Fogarty has missed the Crows' past four games with a shoulder injury he suffered at training. The club had originally hoped he would only be sidelined for a week, but the expectation is that he is available to meet the Bombers this Sunday. Sloane remains at least several weeks away. - Callum Twomey

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Marcus Adams	Foot	5 weeks
Cameron Ellis-Yolmen	Calf	Test
Connor McFadyen	Knee	Season
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

No new problems for the Lions on the weekend and they could have an extra player available. Ellis-Yolmen hurt his calf two weeks ago and is probably another week or two away but will be tested. - Michael Whiting

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Charlie Curnow	Knee	Season
Brodie Kemp	Knee	Season
Matthew Kreuzer	Foot	3-5 weeks
Caleb Marchbank	Knee	1-2 weeks
Nic Newman	Knee	Season
Jack Silvagni	Knee	1-2 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

The bad news for the Blues is that Silvagni injured his knee in his return from a rib injury while playing in a scratch match and could now miss the next fortnight. However, Paddy Dow (knee) made it through that practice game and is expected to be available to play. Important intercept defender Marchbank remains a couple of weeks away due to a slow recovery process from bone bruising to his knee. - Riley Beveridge

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Dayne Beams	Mental health	Indefinite
Jordan De Goey	Finger	6-8 weeks
Levi Greenwood	Knee	1-2 weeks
Jeremy Howe	Knee	8-12 weeks
Will Kelly	Elbow	Season
Tom Langdon	Knee	Indefinite
Ben Reid	Calf	Test
Trey Ruscoe	Hamstring	Test
Matthew Scharenberg	Ribs	Test
Steele Sidebottom	Suspension	1 match
Anton Tohill	Concussion	Test
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

Star duo De Goey (finger) and Howe (knee) will both be racing the clock to return before finals, having each undergone surgery on their respective injury issues. However, the Pies could regain Reid (calf) and Scharenberg (ribs) for this week's clash with the Eagles. Sidebottom is still one game away from returning from suspension. - Riley Beveridge

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Patrick Ambrose	Foot	TBC
Joe Daniher	Groin	Indefinite
Martin Gleeson	Managed	Test
Dyson Heppell	Ankle	Indefinite
Tom Hird	Foot	Season
Cale Hooker	Calf	2-3 weeks
Lachie Johnson	Knee	5-7 weeks
Harrison Jones	Foot	1-2 weeks
Dylan Shiel	Suspension	1 match
Jake Stringer	Ankle	5-7 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

Hooker has added to the Bombers’ woes with a calf strain in last week’s loss to the Bulldogs so the veteran will be out of action for at least the next fortnight. Gleeson was managed last week and didn't feature in the Bombers' scratch match but was named an emergency, so should be right to come back if selected. Daniher's calf strain last week set his return from groin troubles back an extra couple of weeks, leaving more uncertainty about if the key forward will play this year. Stringer has flown to the Gold Coast but is some time away from getting back onto the field with his ankle injury. - Callum Twomey 

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Reece Conca	Hamstring	Test
Nat Fyfe	Hamstring	1 week
Stefan Giro	Ankle	2-3 weeks
Joel Hamling	Ankle	TBA
Jesse Hogan	Calf	1-2 weeks
Griffin Logue	Toe	8-10 weeks
Alex Pearce	Ankle	Season
Sam Sturt	Ankle	1-2 weeks
Sam Switkowski	Back	TBA
Hayden Young	Ankle	8-12 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

The Dockers escaped Sunday's Western Derby loss without any major injury concerns. An eight-day break before taking on Geelong should give Taylin Duman plenty of time to recover from a sprained thumb, while Conca is a chance to return. Fyfe could be back in round nine, with Hogan and Sturt chances to return with him. Young has had surgery on his ankle, while Logue is battling turf toe and the club is hopeful the pair will return before the end of the season. Pearce has officially been ruled out for the rest of the campaign. - Chris Correia

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Gary Ablett	Personal	Indefinite
Tom Atkins	Ribs	1-2 weeks
Oscar Brownless	Shoulder	2-3 weeks
Jordan Clark	Shoulder	4-8 weeks
Mitch Duncan	Hamstring	Test
Josh Jenkins	Back	1-2 weeks
Quinton Narkle	Hamstring	1-2 weeks
Stefan Okunbor	Achilles	Test
Joel Selwood	Hamstring	2-3 weeks
Rhys Stanley	Knee	1-2 weeks
Tom Stewart	Shoulder	Test
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

Just four weeks after undergoing surgery to repair a fractured collarbone, Stewart is in line to play against Fremantle on Monday. Duncan is also expected to return for the match that will fall 18 days after his hamstring strain sustained in the round six win over Brisbane. Selwood's setback is a 'standard' hamstring on the same side that he had surgery on to repair a tendon in the off-season. Clark has avoided surgery but will miss a significant chunk of the season. Narkle is still likely to be sidelined, while Jenkins is still recovering. The Cats described Atkins as medium term last week and Ablett has returned to Victoria to be with his family, needing 14 days isolation in Queensland when he opts to join the Cats on the second leg of their quarantine. In positive news, Okunbor is expected to play in a scratch match against Fremantle's reserves next week just six months after rupturing his Achilles. - Mitch Cleary

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
George Horlin-Smith	Foot	2 weeks
Mitch Riordan	Knee	Season
Matt Rowell	Shoulder	Indefinite
Rory Thompson	Knee	2 weeks
Luke Towey	Eye	2-3 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

It's been a rare sight for the Suns over recent years, but their injury list is in relatively good shape. Horlin-Smith and Thompson should be available in the next fortnight, adding more depth to a squad that is as healthy as it's been for some time. - Michael Whiting

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Isaac Cumming	Hamstring	8-10 weeks
Toby Greene	Shin	Test
Adam Kennedy	Hamstring	1 week
Sam Reid	Calf	2 weeks
Sam Taylor	Back	TBC
Callan Ward	Knee	3-5 weeks
Zac Williams	Hamstring	1 week
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

All eyes will be on Greene this week as he looks to prove his fitness for Friday night's clash with the Tigers. The Giants expect him to play and they need their superstar small forward back. Williams is still another week away with his hamstring injury but will be a boost when he returns, while Kennedy's ongoing hamstring concerns will see him available in another week too. The club isn't sure exactly when Taylor will be back from his septic arthritis but he has left hospital and is back at the club. - Callum Twomey 

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Luke Breust	Fractured jaw	2 weeks
Jon Ceglar	Fractured toe	Test
Will Golds	Knee	Season
Dan Howe	Foot	Test
Tim O'Brien	Ankle	1-2 weeks
Jon Patton	Hamstring	3 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

O'Brien is the newest injury concern and will miss at least a week after hurting his left ankle early in Sunday's defeat to Melbourne. The timing isn't great, with Patton still out for a few more weeks and fellow key forward Mitch Lewis out of sorts. Ceglar is also in some doubt, given his injury will be problematic for a ruckman. However, Jack Scrimshaw (ankle) is likely to return and Jarman Impey is two scratch games into his comeback from a knee reconstruction. Howe will make his long-awaited return in a scrimmage game against GWS but Breust is still a fortnight off. - Marc McGowan

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Marty Hore	Quad/Toe	Indefinite
Kade Kolodjashnij	Concussion	Indefinite
Tom McDonald	Eye	Test
Harry Petty	Groin	Indefinite
Aaron Nietschke	Knee	Season
Aaron vandenBerg	Cheekbone	2 weeks
Updated: Wednesday, July 22

Early prognosis

The Demons erred on the side of caution and left McDonald out of Sunday's game, but coach Simon Goodwin tipped the key forward to be available to face Brisbane this weekend. Whether he is selected is the dilemma. VandenBerg underwent surgery on Tuesday to repair his fractured cheekbone, an injury sustained against Hawthorn. - Marc McGowan

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Paul Ahern	Hamstring	Test
Jed Anderson	Quad	Test
Charlie Comben	Back/Knee	TBC
Ben Cunnington	Back	TBC
Taylor Garner	Hamstring	1-2 weeks
Kyron Hayden	Concussion	Test
Ben Jacobs	Head/neck	TBC

Jy Simpkin	Ankle	Test
Tarryn Thomas	Ankle	TBC
Dom Tyson	Calf	Test
Ed Vickers-Willis	Turf toe	Test
Will Walker	Quad	Test
Jack Ziebell	Hamstring	4 weeks
Cam Zurhaar	Calf	Test
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

It's pure carnage at Arden St, with no club suffering more on the injury front. Coach Rhyce Shaw said Ziebell reinjuring the hamstring that kept him out for the previous fortnight was "bad luck" rather than mismanagement. Ziebell is set to miss four weeks, which is extra costly with the truncated fixture to come. Zurhaar was a late withdrawal from Saturday night's game but should be right to return, while Anderson will be close as well. Hayden's status will be guided by how he fares in the concussion protocols after coming off second-best in a collision with Tiger Tom Lynch. Simpkin played out the match after in-game treatment. The likes of Nick Larkey, Luke Davies-Uniacke and Kayne Turner are increasing their output post-injury in scratch games. - Marc McGowan

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Ryan Burton	Quad	TBC
Scott Lycett	Knee	1-2 weeks
Steven Motlop	Ankle	TBC
Connor Rozee	Heel	Test
Cam Sutcliffe	Hamstring	Test
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

The Power are still awaiting scan results to determine the fitness of Burton (quad) and Motlop (ankle), after both finished Sunday's game on the bench. However, neither will be available this week. Rozee hurt his heel and will have a fitness test to determine whether he will be available to take on the Saints. Doubt remains over Lycett, who has PCL damage to his knee. He won't play this weekend. However, Sutcliffe could be in the frame after returning from a hamstring strain. - Riley Beveridge

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
David Astbury	Knee	Test
Josh Caddy	Hamstring	4-6 weeks
Trent Cotchin	Hamstring	1 week
Noah Cumberland	ACL	Season
Shane Edwards	Personal	Indefinite
Bachar Houli	Personal	Indefinite
Will Martyn	Foot	1-3 weeks
Toby Nankervis	Ankle	3-6 weeks
Dion Prestia	Ankle	3-6 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

Another blow for the Tigers with Caddy to miss at least a month with a significant hamstring injury. In better news, premiership defender Astbury is likely to return against the Giants, but Cotchin will be given another week to recover from his hamstring injury. Prestia and Nankervis are rehabbing in Queensland, but are still around a month away from returning. - Ben Sutton

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Josh Battle	Concussion/cheekbone	1-2 weeks
Luke Dunstan	Pectoral muscle	6-8 weeks
Dan Hannebery	Hamstring	Test
Ben Long	Suspension	2 matches
Jack Mayo	Knee	Season
Updated: Wednesday, July 22

Early prognosis

Brett Ratten suggested Hannebery was pushing for a return last week but given his history, expect the Saints to be extra cautious. Battle has been ruled out of Saturday's clash with Port Adelaide after suffering concussion and a fracture to his left cheek in Monday's win over Adelaide. Mayo ruptured his left ACL in last week's scratch match against Carlton. He will return home to Western Australia where he will quarantine for two weeks before undergoing surgery. - Mitch Cleary

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Kaiden Brand	Groin	1-2 weeks
Lance Franklin	Hamstring	4-5 weeks
Will Hayward	Knee	Test

Michael Knoll	Knee	1-2 weeks
Sam Naismith	Knee	Season
Colin O'Riordan	Hip	Test
Ben Ronke	Back	6-7 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

There's mixed news for the Swans, with O'Riordan – who couldn't finish Saturday's game – Hayward and Hewett all in some doubt. Hewett has a bulging disc in his back, while Hayward played out the loss to the Suns with a hyperextended knee. On the flipside, all of Sam Reid (calf), Lewis Melican and Joel Amartey (both groin) will be available. Callum Sinclair (knee) and Tom McCartin (concussion) also returned last week. Franklin is edging closer but is still some way off, while Brand could still be a fortnight from playing again. - Marc McGowan

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Brendon Ah Chee	Back	Test

Jamaine Jones	Hamstring	2-3 weeks
Mitch O'Neill	Back	Indefinite
Jack Petruccelle	Hamstring	4-5 weeks
Luke Shuey	Hamstring	Test
Daniel Venables	Concussion	Season
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

The Eagles took the cautious approach with Shuey's hamstring, meaning he should be cherry ripe for Sunday's date with Collingwood. Hutchings is edging closer to a return via the scratch matches, while Jarrod Brander (hip/back) is available. Jones has suffered a setback in his return, while Ah Chee will be monitored after a heavy fall in the Western Derby win. - Mitch Cleary

PLAYER	INJURY	ESTIMATED RETURN
Josh Dunkley	Ankle	3-5 weeks
Taylor Duryea	Quad	3-5 weeks
Riley Garcia	Knee	Indefinite
Ryan Gardner	Calf	Test
Lin Jong	Ankle	4-6 weeks
Aaron Naughton	Ankle	4-6 weeks
Updated: Tuesday, July 21

Early prognosis

Naughton has just started running three weeks after his ankle syndesmosis surgery. Sam Lloyd is off the injury list and kicked a goal against Essendon in last week's scratch match. Gardner is back training and the Dogs got through their AFL and scratch matches without picking up any new injuries. - Jourdan Canil
