"Mckenna: Gary Ablett is a good chance for next week. Has full flexibility back today."

DT Talk retweeted this. Not sure how creditable this guy is, but let's hope.

Yeah i think it was, the other day it was looking like 2-3 more weeks because there was no progress. But i guess today it has improved a lot, so it's just an update on the injury?

Let's hope that he's back next week though :) and then all the people who traded him will feel like fools ;D

Bluey and Gaz are desperate for a win. I think it more likely than not that he will play GWS (hope so too).

Knees are very dodgy.  Regardless of the Gaj effect and also his enthusiasm towards playing his knee will be weak.  He risks a lot by coming back so soon, both in the game and for the rest of the season. 

I'm shipping him out based on that.  It may cost me my season but I think it's a risk worth taking.

The only reason he wont play is because his knee is sore and swollan................. the risk of him hurting it again coming back to early is not the issue or problem!! if he comes back early the only downfall might be a few low sc snd dteam score under 100point or just over.

if gaj comes back to early hes not at any more risk doing a pcl or acl injury

I tend to agree. The only problem is pain and decreased range of movement affecting his game.

Let's hope he comes back soon and close to 100%!

"“I’m still not super confident for the week after, but the medicos are thinking that he’s got his full flexibility back and his strength and power,” McKenna said.

“Again, it’s bone bruising, so that’s the only question mark, so if that subsides and he’s OK, I’m sure next week he’ll be a big chance.”"
