Trengove almost ready.

MELBOURNE'S Jack Trengove has taken another decisive step in his recovery from a serious foot injury, joining full contact training for the first time since his second bout of surgery last October.

An upbeat Trengove, 24, trained alongside his teammates through almost the entire two-and-a-half hour session, before exiting Gosch's Paddock when match simulation started.

Match practice remains the only hurdle left in the luckless midfielder's bid to return to the football field via the NAB Challenge or the season proper.

Another setback for key Sun David Swallow

GOLD Coast midfielder David Swallow has had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and has no timeframe on a return. The setback continues a frustrating run for the 23-year-old, who played just six games in 2015 after suffering back-to-back posterior cruciate ligament injuries. After a disjointed pre-season already, he is now almost certain to be unavailable for the start of the season.

Tom Rockilff update

BRISBANE Lions skipper Tom Rockliff will forgo Thursday's annual Captains' Day in Melbourne to concentrate on his recovery from a hamstring niggle.

While the 17 other AFL captains will meet in Melbourne to help launch the season, Rockliff will be with his teammates in Brisbane doing a full training session.

Vice-captain Pearce Hanley will fill Rockliff's shoes.

Rockliff did not play a NAB Challenge match after withdrawing from Sunday's contest against Greater Western Sydney after a back-related hamstring niggle flared last week.

Despite the mishap, the 26-year-old said last Friday he would be raring to go against West Coast in round one.

"It's not so serious," Rockliff said.

"I am pretty much match conditioned. I have done a fair chunk of the pre-season.

"I have done all the contested stuff and the intra-club (game) â€" I'll be fine."

TOM ROCKLIFF took a big step towards securing his spot in the Lions' round one team to play West Coast, training strongly in Brisbane on Thursday morning.

Rockliff bypassed the annual Captains' Day in Melbourne to resume training after tweaking his hamstring early last week, and ticked every box.

The Lions skipper completed a series of all-out sprints before joining in with some full ground training drills and finally goalkicking practice in the two-hour plus session.

He looked totally untroubled.

Bradley Hill out now with a broken wrist. Could open up more room for Daniel Howe. Will score well if he plays.
