Melbourne injury list
Robert Campbell (achilles) - 6-8 weeks
Troy Davis (thyroid disorder) - 6 weeks
Jack Fitzpatrick (foot) - 3-4 weeks
James Frawley (shoulder) - 4 weeks
Jordie McKenzie (groin) - 3-4 weeks
Tom McNamara (foot) - 3-4 weeks
Cale Morton (hand) - 4-5 weeks
Michael Newton (hand) - 3 weeks
James Strauss (hamstring) - test
I know it might not look that great having the 9 names above on the injured list, but within that list, you would only really expect the names below to be in our current best 22 available for Round 1:
* J.Frawley
* J.McKenzie
* C.Morton ( with J.Strauss an outside chance )
so realistically, baring no more injuries leading up to the start of the season ( touch wood ), we should have our best 22 available to pick from by Round 4 - Gold Coast.
