Acres, Boyd, Fantasia, Marchbank and McGovern will all face fitness tests at main training on Wednesday.

| Zach Reid | Pectoral | 8 weeks |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
Guelfi will miss up to a month after suffering a hamstring strain against Adelaide last weekend, but the news is better for Jye Caldwell, who has pulled up well from a head knock and will be available to face St Kilda. Having missed the past 10 weeks with a calf injury, Parish will face a fitness test this week to determine his availability and could make his long-awaited return against the Saints. – Michael Rogers

| Neil Erasmus | Concussion | Test |

| Ollie Murphy | Abdomen | 3-4 weeks |
| Alex Pearce | Arm | TBC |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
Pearce has suffered a new fracture in a different location on his left forearm. The captain underwent surgery a month ago and had a plate inserted on the arm to repair the initial fracture, which created a risk of reinjury. He is expected to undergo surgery later this week, with a timeline for his return yet to be determined. Johnson will miss another match after the Dockers picked up a stress reaction in his foot. Erasmus is on track to emerge from concussion protocols after a head knock in the WAFL. - Nathan Schmook

| Cam Guthrie | Achilles | 3 weeks |
| Tom Hawkins | Foot | 3-4 weeks |
| Oli Wiltshire | Pelvis | 1 week |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
Atkins will be tested after he was a late withdrawal against the Bulldogs, but he is the only addition to the injury list. Edwards' season is over after the club opted for a conservative management of the young ruck's troublesome back. Guthrie and Hawkins are still progressing through their recoveries but are at least three weeks away. – Michael Rogers

| Jake Rogers | Knee | 3 weeks |
| Jarrod Witts | Back | Test |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis

| Sam Taylor | Testicle | Test |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
The Giants have ruled Cumming out for the remainder of the home and away season, continuing a wretched run of injury luck for the wing. The club could be bolstered by the return of Coniglio and Taylor this weekend, though, but Kelly is still the best part of a month away. – Riley Beveridge

|---|---|---|
| Josh Bennetts | Shoulder | TBC |
| James Blanck | Knee | Season |
| Sam Butler | Leg | Season |
| Mitch Lewis | Knee | Season |
| Jasper Scaife | Finger | Test |
| Chad Wingard | Calf | 1-2 weeks |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
Wingard is still at least a week away from returning from a calf strain, while mid-season recruit Scaife will push to be available after fracturing his finger at training. Bennetts dislocated his shoulder in the VFL on the weekend and is meeting specialists this week to determine the next course of action. – Josh Gabelich
| PLAYER | INJURY | ESTIMATED RETURN |
|---|---|---|
| Jed Adams | Lung | 1 week |
| Ben Brown | Knee soreness | TBC |
| Max Gawn | Ankle | Test |

| Christian Salem | Hamstring | 3-4 weeks |
| Joel Smith | Suspension | Indefinite |
| Charlie Spargo | Achilles | Season |
| Koltyn Tholstrup | Concussion | 1-2 weeks |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
Salem was unable to finish the match against Fremantle following some hamstring tightness, with subsequent scans showing a low-grade strain which will sideline him for 3-4 weeks. Tholstrup suffered delayed concussion symptoms after a head knock against the Dockers and has entered the League's protocols. Brown didn't play at any level due to ongoing knee soreness and the Demons will continue to assess the veteran before making a call on his return. Adams (lung) copped a knock in the VFL game and suffered some internal bruising that requires him to have a week off contact. In positive news, Gawn could return to face the Giants if he makes it through main training this week, while Lachie Hunter (calf) will return at VFL level. - Alison O'Connor

| Tyler Sellers | Concussion | 1 week |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||

| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
Martin has been a week-to-week proposition but should be right to face Collingwood, while Tim Taranto has been cleared to return from concussion. However, Nankervis will miss in a huge loss for the Tigers. A few senior players are facing tests including Vlastuin, Rioli jnr and Pickett, but Graham will miss again. Ross is on track to play again before season's end. - Howard Kimber

| Marcus Windhager | Hamstring | 3 weeks |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||

Rampe was another casualty out of the loss to the Lions, while Hayward faces a fitness test later in the week after hurting his ankle in the same match. McInerney remains in a brace after a PCL injury. In better news, captain Mills is expected to return after being rested. – Brandon Cohen

| Noah Long | Knee | Season |
| Jeremy McGovern | Ribs | Test |
| Updated: July 23, 2024 | ||
Early prognosis
McGovern faces a fitness test later this week after missing two matches with rib and lung injuries. The Eagles have ticked off Jake Waterman, Matt Flynn and Elliot Yeo to return as long as they get through main training. Brockman has been ruled out for the season with a syndesmosis injury, while Jamieson has a patella tendon knee issue and a lingering ankle problem that the club is still investigating. Duggan was absent on Tuesday as he works back from a concussion that will sideline him for a second week. – Nathan Schmook
