Meanwhile, Matt Guelfi is making positive strides in his recovery from a calf strain that has kept him out since round two. The pressure forward aims to make his return for the Anzac Day match, pending his progress in training over the next fortnight.
Key defender Zach Reid’s rehabilitation is progressing smoothly, with the club prioritizing a thorough training regimen to ensure his readiness for a return to play.
