Where was this reported?Fly said in his press conference that he would be available for selection this week.
While anything can happen - especially when its a sore shoulder for elliott - McRae was pretty positive about his availability

"Jamie Elliott, Pat Lipinski and Dan McStay are all available next week, and we may need all of them. We'll wait and see how we get through this game," the coach said

Lipinski was being tested last week. Was that being tested to resume full contact training? Or had he already been in full contact training? I'd be surprised if he only does one week of full contact before coming into the AFL.
He already had been in full contact training.

I presume he was tested to recommence Match Sim which he started last week

Looked to be a bit off with going in for the hard 50/50 ball.

Here's hoping that within the next month of footy he can have the confidence in his shoulder again.

Same sort of thing as a knee reco, just has to get through those first few contests with heavy body contact and he'll be fine. You're never quite sure whether you can still go like you did before above the shoulders after having a reco, until you take those first few hits (or even have that first "scare").
 
Never blessed with speed but has class and damaging off one step

Good to have him back as an option for the 23 again

I’ve been a fan since it was announced we were to sign him… but will be interesting when/if we have a full line up with guaranteed starters in Sidebottom and de Goey back.

WHE, Markov, Lipinski… there are only so many spots available
