Tom Liberatore will be a test ahead of a Sunday afternoon clash with the Saints at Marvel Stadium.

The 34-year-old has been recovering from both knee surgery and a concussion earlier in the season.

“Tom has progressed well across the last month following his concussion and knee injury,” Head of Sports Medicine, Chris Bell said.

“After progressing through the final stages of the concussion protocols, he has returned to a full football training model.

“In the last few weeks, he has built some great continuity in his conditioning and football training.

“If he gets through training this week like I expect, he will return to availability this weekend.”

Laith Vandemeer will train on Thursday too, as he endeavours to return from a hamstring injury.

Lachie McNeil remains in concussion protocols from an incident during the round 13 clash with Hawthorn.
