Jarrad Waite is confident of making his return this week after missing the last fortnight with a calf injury.

The veteran forward has managed just eight games so far this season, but has been in sparkling form since taking up a role on a wing.

In his last outing, the 34-year-old had 19 possessions and 4 goals against Gold Coast.

The news isn’t good for Corey Wagner however, with the youngster injuring his ankle in the game against Port Adelaide on Saturday afternoon. He had a minor procedure yesterday and will miss three to four weeks.
