The Barometer: Find out which of your club's stars are on track to play in Round 1 Mitch Clark has lacked match fitness. SOME crunch decisions for Melbourne, a heavy Collingwood injury list and Matthew Leuenberger a 50-50 chance to face the Bulldogs. Read on for the latest injury and selection news a Nick Joyce (groin) TBA Ian Callinan (knee) test Brodie Smith (collarbone) 3 weeks Luke Brown (foot) test Ricky Henderson (concussion) test Luke Brown will be available for selection after scans cleared the young defender of any bone damage despite finishing Friday night's game against Essendon on crutches. Ricky Henderson copped a knock to the head but should be right to go. Ian Callinan will be pushing for selection as will fringe midfielder Richard Tambling, who impressed in an SANFL trial with 22 disposals, five marks and four tackles. Sam Shaw had a light run with Glenelg and could come into consideration. Substitute Brodie Martin might struggle to keep his spot while defender Andy Otten could miss for Shaw. Jared Petrenko should improve after a lacklustre effort against Essendon. Gilbert Gardiner Simon Black (knee) Indefinite Matthew Leuenberger (calf) 1 week Jesse O'Brien (groin) 1 week Brent Staker (knee) 3 weeks Stephen Wrigley (knee) TBA Lions coach Michael Voss today rated Matthew Leuenberger a 50-50 chance to play against the Bulldogs after a limited pre-season. The big ruckman emerged unscathed after playing a half for the Lions reserves last week but Brisbane will take no risks on Leuey, given the sharp improvement in Billy Longer's game. Utility Brent Staker is still two weeks away while Simon Black remains a longer term proposition. Jaryd Cachia (hamstring) TBA Andrew Collins (ankle) TBA David Ellard (hamstring) TBA Andrew McInnes (knee) 14 weeks Jarrad Waite (calf) 3-4 weeks Jarrad Waite remains the only selection headache for Mick Malthouse with the key forward still some weeks away. Waite, who has struggled with a niggling calf strain, is not expected back in navy blue until Round 3. Hard-nosed midfielder Jaryd Cachia will be monitored after experiencing some hamstring tightness during the pre-season. No sweat on veteran Chris Judd despite his limited pre-season - 72 minutes of match practice. Reigning best-and-fairest winner Heath Scotland will miss the first two matches serving his club-imposed suspension. Alex Fasolo (hamstring) test Jackson Ramsay (groin) test Ben Richmond (leg) test Dale Thomas (ankle) test Ben Reid (knee) test Andrew Krakouer (match fitness) 1-2 weeks Luke Ball (knee) 1-2 weeks Alan Didak (hamstring) 2-3 weeks Corey Gault (groin) 4-5 weeks Brodie Grundy (back) 6-7 weeks Lachie Keeffe (knee) 6-7 weeks) Tim Broomhead (glandular fever) indefinite A mega injury list, but the stars are at the right end of it in some relief to Nathan Buckley. Strangely enough, Dale Thomas could play the curtain-raiser to Blues-Tigers when the VFL Pies tackle the AIS-AFL Academy. Fasolo is expected to face the Roos, as will Tyson Goldsack, while Ben Reid, Luke Ball and Andrew Krakouer aren't too far away. With Reid and Keeffe sidelined, watch for stingy VFL recruit Jack Frost - a $96,200 SuperCoach steal - to debut against North's tall-timber attack Sam Landsberger Jason Winderlich (groin) test The top-of-the-table Bombers (enjoy it while it's there) have just one player from its entire squad unavailable. That's a serious improvement on last year. David Zaharakis is expected to build on his match fitness with another VFL practice match this week, while the rest of the Dons now have two weeks to prepare for their Round 2 showdown with bogey side Melbourne. Anthony Morabito (knee) Indefinite Aaron Sandilands (hamstring) 3-4 weeks Matthew Pavlich (hand) test Hayden Ballantyne (leg) TBA Matthew Pavlich should be right to go despite going into hospital after last Saturday's match to repair split webbing on his left hand. X-rays cleared the skipper of any breaks. Hayden Ballantyne is set to miss the Dockers' next assignment on suspension. But it could be a blessing in disguise after the antagonist left the game early with tightness in his hamstring and lower leg. Expect the small forward to be restricted to light duties this week. Aaron Sandilands is still a month away, at best. Hamish McIntosh (knee) TBA Josh Hunt (glandular fever) TBA Daniel Menzel (knee) 2-3 weeks Dawson Simpson (back) Indefinite Trent West (knee) 1-2 weeks Jed Bews (foot) TBA George Burbury (foot) TBA When Hamish McIntosh was traded to Geelong it was a matter of where do you play all these talls. Now, it's who's left to ruck after injuries to Trent West (knee), Dawson Simpson (back) and McIntosh (knee). Former steeplechaser Mark Blicavs will have first crack at the Hawks after impressing in the NAB Cup. Josh Walker, also a rookie, will be added to the senior list to help out at the stoppages. Steve Johnson and James Kelly will sit out Saturday's blockbuster against Hawthorn serving one-match bans from last year's elimination final. Luckless forward Daniel Menzel is expected to play in the VFL. Tom Lynch (foot) 3-4 weeks Jesse Lonergan (wrist) 4-5 weeks Nathan Bock (leg) indefinite Liam Patrick (hamstring) TBC Handy names on the Suns" injury toll, which is a bit of a concern. Lonergan, Gold Coast's top draft pick last year, was on track for a Round 1 debut before breaking his hand, while Tom Lynch's absence weakens the attack. Matthew Buntine (lung) 5 weeks Chad Cornes (shoulder) Indefinite Jonothan O'Rourke (leg) 2 weeks Dom Tyson (knee) 8 weeks Nathan Wilson (shoulder) test Matthew Buntine and Dom Tyson aside, the Giants have a full list to pick from ahead of Saturday's Battle of the Bridge against cross-town rivals Sydney. Chad Cornes" career appears at the crossroads with no date set for his return from shoulder/knee injuries. Jono O'Rourke needs another couple of weeks after twinging a hamstring in his NAB Cup debut. Josh Gibson (ribs) test Cyril Rioli (ankle) test Brian Lake (calf) doubtful Luke Hodge (knee) doubtful Alex Woodward (knee) indefinite Brendan Whitecross (knee) indefinite Matt Suckling (knee) indefinite Back Gibson and Rioli to play despite pre-season niggles. The extended break - the Hawks don't front up to face Geelong until Easter Monday - will help, but Lake and Hodge lack match conditioning. That pair was expected to seek fitness in a lower grade, although Shaun Burgoyne today forecast they all could be surprise inclusions. If not expect the Hawks to roll out Lake against a well-rested West Coast side on the rebound in Perth come Round 2 while Hodge let slip on radio this morning that his return to the top level might be a week or two later. Strauggling Hawthorn captain Luke Hodge yesterday. Rohan Bail (concussion) 1 week Max Gawn (hamstring) 2 weeks THE unavailable list is thin but that doesn't translate into the Dees having little to worry about. Super boots Mitch Clark and Chris Dawes have combined for just 100 minutes of football this pre-season, placing them in extreme doubt for Sunday's duel with Port Adelaide, while co-captain Jack Trengove is in a similar boat. That trio donned Casey colours in a VFL scratch match on Saturday in the desperate search for match fitness, and coach Mark Neeld faces some tough dilemmas on whether to pick his underdone stars this week. But father-son star Jack Viney is expected to debut after overcoming a neck injury and impressing for the Scorpions. Nil The Kangaroos boast a clean bill of health a full list to choose from ahead of Sunday's match against Collingwood. Scott McMahon will miss on suspension as will veteran Brent Harvey, who is not eligible for selection until Round 7. Nathan Grima was the big improver in the NAB Cup after battling a back problem during the pre-season. John Butcher (hand) doubtful Nick Salter (foot) 6-8 weeks A healthy list after a fruitful summer. The major bonus is the speedy return of Robbie Gray. The freakish goalkicker is AFL-ready after two SANFL hitouts and could line up against the Dees. Watch for midfield beast and top draft pick Ollie Wines to debut, while former Eagle Lewis Stevenson and Jake Neade could also feature. Port Adelaide key forward John Butcher at training. David Astbury (foot) 1-2 weeks Nathan Foley (Achilles) 4-6 weeks Dylan Grimes (hamstring) and Brad Helbig (foot) each played a half for VFL affiliate Coburg on the weekend and came through unscathed. Matt Arnot (28 disposals), Chris Knights (28 touches in three quarters) and Orren Stephenson (45 hitouts) all put up impressive numbers but are unlikely to break into the Round 1 line-up after a four-day break. Nick Vlastuin is likely to make his debut on Thursday night and former Demon Ricky Petterd is a strong chance after an impressive NAB Cup. Al Paton Rhys Stanley (knee) doubtful Sam Fisher (foot) doubtful Sean Dempster (hamstring) 1 week Jackson Ferguson (knee) 5 weeks Daniel Markworth (knee) indefinite The Saints" injury list seems to be confined to their defensive mix. Stanley, Fisher and Dempster could all miss the Gold Coast clash, which is suddenly shaping as a danger game. But, all things going well, they should boast a full-strength side when they take to the Friday night stage against Richmond in Round 2. Alex Johnson (knee) season Gary Rohan (leg) indefinite Alex Johnson is the only injury concern in the Harbour City with the Swans expected to upgrade Sydney-raised rookie Dean Rampe as his replacement. Kieren Jack's younger brother, Brandon, could also be added to the senior list. Mark Nicoski (hamstring) 8 weeks Matt Rosa (quad) 6-8 weeks Sharrod Wellingham (ankle) 4-6 weeks Nick Naitanui (groin) 3-4 weeks Daniel Kerr (knee) 3-4 weeks Adam Carter (ankle) 1-2 weeks Mark LeCras (arm) 4-6 weeks Eric McKenzie (hamstring) 1-2 weeks Coach John Worsfold says he is optimistic LeCras could return within a month after having a plate inserted in his arm yesterday, but everything would have to go right for that to happen. McKenzie limped off with a low-grade hamstring injury in the third quarter on Saturday night but a week off next week gives him a strong chance of playing against Hawthorn in Round 2. Big names Naitanui and Kerr have rejoined the main training group but seem a few weeks off at least. Possible reinforcements are a class below those names - the Eagles" emergencies against Freo were Jacob Brennan, Mitch Brown and Bradd Dalziell. Adam Cooney (knee) test Easton Wood (hamstring) test Tom Williams (foot) 1-2 weeks The intrigue centres around Adam Cooney, who was hospitalised last week with an infection in his knee. But the Brownlow medallist is out and, if he can train this week, could face the Lions. Easton Wood is also racing the clock as he overcomes a hamstring problem, with Tom Williams the only definite non-starter. The Dogs could boast a clean bill of health come their Round 2 encounter against Fremantle.
