Luckily skipper Emma Swanson has come back strong from a cork she received in a contest against Essendon last weekend.

Swanson left the field after a collision with Bomber Joanne Doonan however returned to the field shortly after.

“Emma copped a knock in her lower leg which was assessed on the side and deemed a contusion in the muscle, she got wrapped up and finished out the game,” Finucane said.

“She’ll have a lighter start to the week but will progress through training and be available for selection this weekend.”

Previously on the injury list Aimee Schmidt and Belinda Smith have both progressed through last week’s match well and have shown no signs of injury heading into this week.

Smith received bruising to the rips after a collision in round two and has recovered well while Schmidt played last game after being cleared of concussion protocols due to a knock she sustained in the forward line during round one.

“If there was a silver lining from last weekend’s clash both Aimee and Belinda have gotten through the match unscathed and will be available to play this weekend,” Finucane said.

West Coast will fly East to play Greater Western Sydney this weekend at Giants Stadium starting at 11:10am AEST (9:10am AWST) on Saturday September 17.
