"And Deledio could be joined by another crucial Tiger in Shane Edwards, offsetting the loss of Reece Conca (hamstring) and Dylan Grimes (hamstring). Edwards has not played since round 15 when he suffered a fractured leg. He completed a strong training session at the weekend and the Tigers will consider moving him into more skills work later this week before making a call."

Seems the Eagles have not been patient enough with his injuries this year might be me but he seemed to brought back in to quickly at times when they should have given him a good spell ?

Buddy a no-show at Swans training, unlikely to face Pies. Pyke, Rohan trained with main group, McGlynn doing run throughs to the side @AFL

I think he will play, they need him, they need the win 

THEY kept him behind closed doors at training on Wednesday, but the Sydney Swans are hopeful of having star forward Lance Franklin back on deck for the clash against Collingwood at the SCG.
