Ben Brown is on track to make his return from injury this weekend for Werribee.

He’s recovered from a troublesome knee injury will most likely play limited game time for the reserves against Sandringham on Sunday.

NMFC.com.au spoke to director of football, Geoff Walsh, about the club’s current injury list.

#8: Daniel Wells (foot)

Walsh: “Wednesday’s session is the important one for him.

“If he can’t get through a full session then he won’t be picked to play Brisbane. We’ll see how it goes and Brad (Scott) wants him to get through the full session.”

#25: Robbie Tarrant (leg)

Walsh: “He’s made a bit of a breakthrough. He’s made some promising progress in the last few sessions.

“He won’t be available in the next few weeks but we’ll monitor his pain threshold and begin to step him up as his body starts to feel better.”

#27: Taylor Garner (hamstring)

Walsh: “He’s coming along slowly but steadily. What he’s able to do this week on the track will determine how much longer he’ll be out for.

“He won’t be available this week for selection.”

#30: Tom Curran (foot)

Walsh: “He’s our longest term injury. It’s very small steps with Tom.

“If we can see him joining in a bit with training at about Round 12-13 that would be good. There’s no setbacks but because he’s had two (foot injuries) in the past and he had no base from the summer, we’ll bring him along slowly.”

#31: Cam Delaney (foot)

Walsh: “He’s one of the longer term ones. I don’t think we’ll see him back inside the month. He’s doing a bit on the track but it’s progressing slowly.”

#34: Jamie Macmillan (fibula)

Walsh: “He’s progressed to running on the Alter-G (anti-gravity treadmill). Originally it was about a six-week injury and it’s still progressing right along that timeline.

#50: Ben Brown (knee)

Walsh: “I spoke to him before the bye and he was quite confident that he would be back this week. He’ll probably be up for selection this week but if not then certainly next week.”
