Just quietly, very excited to see what Dimma can get out of Weller when he's back.

SUNS midfielder Oskar Faulkhead is set for a stint on the sidelines after sustaining an ankle injury through the VFL.

Faulkhead didn’t play in the VFL match against Brisbane due to the injury and will miss eight weeks after undergoing surgery.

Brandon Ellis was managed from last week’s VFL match but is available for selection once again.

Malcolm Rosas (hamstring, 5 weeks) and Lachie Weller (knee, 11 weeks) remain on the injury list.

Early prognosis​

Good news for Rosas jnr who is two weeks ahead of his original schedule. He travelled with the team to his hometown of Darwin and impressed with his strong training. Weller is now also firming as a crucial addition late in the season. – Michael Whiting

Fantastic news on Rosas! Looks like he'll be lining up for us in the Essendon game next week.

 

[Big Red Machine]

If Lachie keeps up this pace we'll have him back for possibly VFL in Round 19ish with the return Q-Clash looming at home in Round 20

Barring any last-minute hiccups, Malcolm Rosas jnr will be available this weekend after overcoming a hamstring injury. Weller is ramping up his training and expected to be doing everything the main group is in the next two to three weeks. – Michael Whiting

is out of the Essendon match with a hamstring injury. Does anyone have more information?

 

[Jirik13]

GC SUNS co-captain Jarrod Witts will miss Saturday’s clash at Marvel Stadium against St Kilda with a hamstring complaint.

Witts missed Sunday’s match against the Bombers and will target a return to action following the SUNS’ Round 14 bye.

“Jarrod will be unavailable this weekend with a low-grade hamstring strain, but we expect him to be available in Round 15 following the bye,” GC SUNS Head Physiotherapist Lindsay Bull said.

“Oskar Faulkhead, who has been out of action for a number of weeks with an ankle injury, will also be available for selection after the bye.”

Lachie Weller has resumed full training with the squad and remains on schedule to return in six weeks, while Malcolm Rosas Jnr got through his return to action in the VFL on Sunday unscathed.

Ben King ACL is the rumour

That’s it. All hope is gone as it goes through multiple sources.
King knows how an ACL feels.
What a bummer.
That’s a 3nd ACL now isn’t it for him?
He might not ever really go close to fulfilling potential now.

2nd ACL if true

No Mabior to fill the gap and Jed is still miles off

When we drafted him wasn’t he coming off an ACL? Maybe that was Max.

Yeah Max did the ACL in his top age U18 year.

 

[RowellAnderson12]

On the bye? Lol what

It was Max

[Mini GF]

Fingers and toes and anything else crossed
Even if it’s PCL and season ending at least he’d be right for next season and we can spend the rest of the year doing some development with King right to go next season.

 

[Big Red Machine]

What are we doing training on a bye kn a Saturday?

 

[KaySwizzle]

What are we doing training on a bye kn a Saturday?

Probably a match sim after a lighter training week.

 

[RowellAnderson12]

What are we doing training on a bye kn a Saturday?

Keeps the players in routine, happens often

 

[GC2015]

The initial tests indicating that the ACL is intact is a positive. Hopefully it was just an awkward knock and he'll be okay after a few day's rest.

 

[Jirik13]

Anything but ACL, please
