Injury news

[Mantis]

Western Bulldog Shaun Higgins is likely to miss three matches but fellow forward Robert Murphy may miss only one.

Both injured hamstrings in Saturday night's loss to St Kilda.

Captain Brad Johnson pulled up sore with a leg problem and must pass a fitness test to get the green light for his club games record-breaking 342nd appearance against Fremantle at Etihad Stadium on Saturday.

Doubt Higgins will be longer than 3 weeks . Geelong game hazard to guess

Oh yay, goodbye remaining forwardline.

That's better than I expected. If we can have them all fit for the finals it will be an absolute blessing.

Welsh's ankle?

Welsh's ankle?
Players tend to play through these sort of injuries so probably not worth listing.

Had no idea he was carrying injury previously. Probably mitigates his poor recent form a little.

I thought he should have been dropped weeks ago, but no one agreed with me.
