Jimmy Webster has returned to main training, while Max King won’t play at any level this weekend.

Jimmy has been cleared by his specialists and is ready to go, which is great for him and the team,” Acting General Manager of Football David Misson said.

“As for Max, we feel another week of full training will better set him up to perform potentially next week.

“He’s put in a lot of hard work over the summer to get back, so we’re not going to be impatient this week.”

In further positive news, both Jade Gresham and Rowan Marshall have avoided serious injury.

Jade received a knock to a previously injured knee during the game, so we subbed him off as a precaution, but he’s come up fine.

“As for Rowan, his was a pretty standard rolled ankle, which he’ll manage throughout the week, but we don’t anticipate it impeding him this weekend.

“However, both Jade and Rowan will need to complete training on Friday, which we expect, to play on Sunday.”

Meanwhile, Zak Jones and Dan McKenzie are both closing in on a return to full training.
