Oldest confirmed...

Dog

The oldest (confirmed) dog that ever lived was an Australian cattle dog named Bluey, who was born in 1910 and died in 1939, at the age of 29.

However, an Australian kelpie named Maggie died in 2016 at the reported age of 30, but unfortunately, this cannot be confirmed.

Cat

The oldest cat to ever live was named Creme Puff, and she was born in 1967 and died in 2005, at the exact age of 38 years and 3 days. The photo above was taken when she was 29 years old.

Gorilla

Colo became the first gorilla born in human care in late 1956, and became the oldest confirmed gorilla ever when she died in early 2017, a month after her 60th birthday.

Another gorilla, Trudy, died at the estimated age of 62, but it cannot be confirmed, and two living gorillas, Fatou and Helen, are supposedly 61-62 years old, but this too, cannot be confirmed.

Dolphin

The oldest confirmed dolphin (and this includes all species, including killer whales) was a bottlenose dolphin named Nellie who was born at Marineland Dolphin Adventure (then Marine Studios) in 1953, and only the fourth dolphin calf in human care to survive infancy. She died in 2014, two months after her 61st birthday.

A contender is the Australian humpback dolphin Amity, who was caught in 1968 and died at Sea World Gold Coast in 2019, estimated to be as old as 66 years old, but this is impossible to confirm. (Articles reporting her death all stated her to be “55″, but this is inconsistent with all reports before her death, stating she was over 60 years old, and Ceta-Base tentatively putting her birth in 1953.)

No claims of 80-100 year old killer whales have been confirmed, and the extreme age of Granny has long been debunked. For now, the oldest known killer whale is Corky, who will officially be estimated at 56 years next month (January 2020).

Chimpanzee

The oldest confirmed chimpanzee was a female named Garbo who was born at a research facility in 1953, and died in 2015, less than a month before her 62nd birthday. There are several other chimps (Little Mama, Gregoire and Susie) who have reportedly lived to ages from 65 to 82, but these cannot be confirmed, as their ages were simply estimated later in life.

Orangutan

This one is difficult, as I can find no “oldest orangutan” with their birth year absolutely confirmed, including the oldest living today, including 59-year old Inji at Oregon Zoo.

However, the believed oldest orangutan ever was Puan, pictured above, who died in 2018 at the estimated age of 62.

Horse

There are no photos of the oldest horse ever, as he lived so long ago. Old Billy was a barge horse born in 1760, and he died in 1822 at the age of 62. His head is today taxidermied and on display. Judging from the date on the painting, 1803, he was 43 years old when depicted in this painting.

Manatee

The oldest manatee ever known was also, like Nellie the dolphin, one the first born in an aquarium. Snooty was born in 1948, and died in 2017, two days after his 69th birthday. His death, strangely and unfortunately, was an accidental drowning due to a fault in his enclosure. Because of this, we will never know how old he could have become.

Parrot

While stories of parrots well past the age of 100 years are well-known, not one of these has been confirmed. The oldest confirmed parrot was a male Major Mitchell’s cockatoo named Cookie, who was hatched in 1933 in Australia, and died at Brookfield Zoo in 2016, at the age of 83.

Elephant

The oldest confirmed elephant to ever live was a male Asian elephant named Lin Wang (initially named “Ah Mei”), born late 1917 in Burma, and died in early 2003 at Taipei Zoo at the age of 85. The above photo was taken in 1947, when he was 30 years old.

Human

Claims of the oldest people to ever live are usually controversial and difficult to confirm, as we often deal with people born in the late 1800s (now all gone) and early 1900s, where birth certificates may have gone lost over the years, or never existed in the first place.

However, the one human tentatively confirmed to be the world’s oldest, was Frenchwoman Jeanne Calment, who was born in 1875, and died in 1997 at the age of 122. At that point, she was both blind and deaf.

Her age has been contested over the years, including the claim that her only daughter (who supposedly died on her 36th birthday) took her mother’s identity.

Nevertheless, if she was genuine, her age makes her remarkable not only because she lived 122 years, but because there is no other that comes really close. Number two lived 119 years, and number 3-8 all lived 117 years.

And yes, my haters can take note that I still believe humans are apes and animals.

Tortoise

Very hard for any vertebrate to beat, is the lifespan of a giant tortoise. And the oldest confirmed tortoise was Tu’i Malila, a radiated tortoise reportedly taken from Madagascar by James Cook, and who died in 1965 at the age of 188.

Pictured above however, is Adwaita. He is believed to have come into the world in the 1750s in the Seychelles, was caught and given to a man named Robert Clive, then came to Alipore Zoo around 1875, and died there in 2006, at the estimated age of 255.

The oldest living tortoise today is Jonathan, the same species as Adwaita and by 2020, he will be 188 years old, so he may soon break Tu’i Malila’s record. The photos above span 128 years, and both depict Jonathan.

UPDATED: Full injury list, round 13

Marcus Adams could miss the rest of the season

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Luke Brown Fractured cheekbone Test Ben Davis* Foot 4-6 weeks Cam Ellis-Yolmen* Knee Season Curtly Hampton* Ankle 9-11 weeks Updated: Tuesday, June 13

Track watch

With the Crows having the bye this weekend, defender Luke Brown could be available to return for their Thursday night clash with Hawthorn at Adelaide Oval in round 14. Mitch McGovern (hamstring) and Paul Seedsman (groin) made successful returns from long-term injuries in the SANFL, albeit while having their game-time managed. – Lee Gaskin

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Allen Christensen Shoulder Season Mitch Robinson Foot Season Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

All good news for the Lions, with just Christensen and Robinson on the injured list. Claye Beams returned from a hamstring injury in the NEAFL at the weekend and got through strongly. – Michael Whiting

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Sam Rowe* Knee Season Alex Silvagni Knee 3-4 weeks Liam Sumner Adductor TBC Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

The Blues will need to find a replacement for Silvagni when they take on Gold Coast at Metricon Stadium this Saturday night. The rugged defender came off early in the first quarter against Greater Western Sydney on Sunday and scans on Monday revealed bone bruising to his left knee, which should keep him out for 3-4 weeks. Liam Sumner will also miss with an adductor problem. – Howard Kotton

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Jamie Elliott Ankle TBC Tyson Goldsack Shoulder 1-2 weeks Adam Oxley Groin/hip 10-11 weeks Ben Reid Quad Test Ben Sinclair* Hamstring 4-5 weeks Travis Varcoe Hamstring Test Daniel Wells Calf 3-4 weeks Rupert Wills Calf Test Updated: Wednesday, June 14

Track watch

After their bye, the Pies could welcome back quality quartet Elliott, Reid, Goldsack and Varcoe for their round 14 encounter with Port Adelaide at the MCG. Wells is several weeks away with his latest calf injury, while Sinclair is also eyeing a return in the second half of the year. – Ben Collins

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Patrick Ambrose Quad 5-6 weeks Mitch Brown Ankle 1-2 weeks Jayden Laverde* Ankle 2-3 weeks Darcy Parish Calf Test Updated: Tuesday, June 13

Track watch

The Bombers have the bye this week, and are hopeful of regaining young midfielder Parish for their round 14 clash with Sydney after missing him the past two weeks with his minor calf strain. Brown is edging closer as he recovers from an ankle injury, as is Laverde, who hasn’t played since the JLT Community Series. – Callum Twomey

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Michael Apeness Knee Season Hayden Ballantyne Hamstring Test Harley Balic Personal leave Indefinite Harley Bennell Calf 3-4 weeks Zac Clarke* Knee TBC Brady Grey Hamstring 2-3 weeks Ed Langdon Knee Test Alex Pearce Leg TBC Aaron Sandilands Hamstring Test Matthew Uebergang Hamstring TBC Updated: Tuesday, June 13

Track watch

Brady Grey’s hamstring strain in the loss to the Lions is at the lower end of the scale, in one positive to come from a dismal performance, while the Dockers would expect to get Ed Langdon and Aaron Sandilands back after the bye. Goalsneak Hayden Ballantyne should also make his second attempt at a comeback – probably with Peel although Grey’s injury has opened the door – after the weekend off. – Travis King

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Mark Blicavs Soreness 1 week Nakia Cockatoo Hamstring TBC Josh Cowan Achilles Season Cory Gregson* Foot Season Tom Hawkins Suspended Round 14 Timm House Collarbone Test Lincoln McCarthy Groin 4 weeks Brandan Parfitt* Hamstring 4 weeks Scott Selwood Hamstring TBC Updated: Friday, June 16

Track watch

Blicavs missed the Eagles clash due to soreness, but the senior list is mostly healthy although long-term injured pair Cowan and Gregson are unlikely to play again this season after undergoing surgery. Parfitt is making good progress after injuring his hamstring in round six but the Cats will be cautious, while the little known House is an outside chance to play VFL this week after making a remarkable recovery from a collarbone injury. Scott Selwood and Cockatoo need to be assessed after injuring their hamstrings in the West Coast clash. – Peter Ryan

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Callum Ah Chee Back Test Sam Day Hip Season Jarrod Harbrow Club suspension 1 week Touk Miller Illness/ankle 1 week Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

This is the best the Suns’ injury list has looked in three years, but Miller will miss another week as he struggles to overcome an ankle problem. Ah Chee was selected to play last week but was withdrawn a day before the game. He is expected to be fine this week, but might be more likely to return through the NEAFL. – Michael Whiting

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Matt Buntine Knee Season Stephen Coniglio Ankle 7 weeks Phil Davis Ankle Test Brett Deledio Calf TBC Ryan Griffen Ankle 11 weeks Nick Haynes Hamstring 1-2 weeks Jacob Hopper Finger 1-2 weeks Adam Kennedy Knee Season Rory Lobb Groin Test Will Setterfield Ankle 1-2 weeks Devon Smith Knee 3 weeks Updated: Tuesday, June 13

Track watch

Davis rolled his ankle against the Blues but should be fit to play after the bye, while Lobb will also be a chance to face the Brisbane Lions at the Gabba. Haynes, Hopper and Setterfield are scheduled to resume in round 14 if they can get through the next couple of weeks on the track, but after lengthy lay-offs they will probably run out in the NEAFL. – Adam Curley

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Grant Birchall Knee Test Luke Breust Illness Available Jonathon Ceglar* ACL Indefinite Jack Fitzpatrick Concussion Indefinite James Frawley Turf toe 4 weeks Josh Gibson Groin TBC Luke Hodge Groin Test Kieran Lovell Shoulder Indefinite Jaeger O’Meara Knee Indefinite Jonathan O’Rourke Hamstring 3-5 weeks Cyril Rioli PCL 4-6 weeks Ben Stratton Bone bruising (knee) 1-2 weeks Updated: Tuesday, June 13

Track watch

If none of the above are available for the trip to Adelaide after the bye, the Hawks might as well bring Kelvin Moore and Chris Langford out of retirement because the backline has been stripped bare. But the likelihood is that Birchall returns for just his fourth game of the year while the suspicion here is that Hodge was managed last weekend against Gold Coast so that he plays his 300th game later this season at the MCG rather than Launceston as scheduled. His return, along with that of Breust and Birchall should ensure that the Hawks take a more competitive team to play the Crows in what shapes as a difficult evening in any event. Gibson is one to watch because if his groin complaint is serious we may not see him again this season – which could possibly be his last in the AFL. – Ashley Browne

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Angus Brayshaw Concussion Indefinite Lochie Filipovic Hip flexor 2 weeks Colin Garland* Knee Season Max Gawn Hamstring Test Jesse Hogan Testicular cancer 4-6 weeks Pat McKenna Hamstring 6-8 weeks Joel Smith Shoulder 2 weeks Tim Smith Navicular bone Season Aaron vandenBerg* Heel Season Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

The Demons were hopeful Gawn will be right to play, but with three six-day breaks over the coming weeks, he will miss Sunday’s clash against the Dogs. Hogan is still at least a month away from a return, the Demons revealed on Tuesday. – Ben Guthrie

Paul Ahern* Knee Season Ben Jacobs Lower leg 2 weeks Oscar Junker Broken tibia TBC Ben McKay Groin/hip 2 weeks Jy Simpkin AC joint 2-3 weeks Ed Vickers-Willis PCL 6-8 weeks Corey Wagner Ankle 1-2 weeks Sam Wright Foot 2-3 weeks Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

Young defender Vickers-Willis will be missing for up to eight weeks after suffering a knee injury against Richmond before the bye. That blow comes on top of Jacobs and Wright progressing slower than hoped with their respective ailments. Neither player has been sighted at AFL level this year. Veteran forward Lindsay Thomas is available after suspension, but will almost certainly resume in the VFL. – Marc McGowan

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Karl Amon Knee 2-3 weeks Aidyn Johnson Hip Test Angus Monfries Calf 2 weeks Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

Experienced forward Monfries injured his calf in the SANFL last Sunday. Scans revealed it was a minor calf strain. With the SANFL having a split round, Monfries will miss only one game and be expected to return for the game against Woodville-West Torrens on July 1. – Lee Gaskin

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Reece Conca* Foot Indefinite Nathan Drummond* Knee Season Todd Elton Shoulder 4-5 weeks Jack Graham Ankle Test Ben Griffiths Concussion Indefinite Shaun Hampson* Back Indefinite Callum Moore Ankle 3 weeks Nick Vlastuin Shoulder 1 week Updated: Wednesday, June 14

Track watch

Vlastuin is likely to be held back one more week, but the Tigers are planning to bring draftee Graham off the long-term injury list to play limited VFL minutes if he gets through training this week. Elton’s shoulder injury does not require surgery but he faces up to a month on the sidelines for rest and rehabilitation. – Nathan Schmook

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

David Armitage Groin 4-5 weeks Hugh Goddard Foot Indefinite Paddy McCartin Knee 1-2 weeks Ed Phillips Leg 1 week Nathan Wright Shoulder 1-2 weeks Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

Nick Riewoldt returns from bone bruising in his left knee, while Jake Carlisle copped a heavy corkie against Adelaide but is expected to face North Melbourne on Friday night at Etihad Stadium. Mav Weller rolled his right ankle for the third time this season against the Crows but came back on and played well, so he should be right. Tough nut Wright copped a shoulder knock against the Crows and Paddy McCartin has been ruled out for at least a week after pulling up sore. – Dinny Navaratnam

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Darcy Cameron Shoulder Season Harry Cunningham Foot 1-2 weeks Alex Johnson* Knee Indefinite Jarrad McVeigh Hamstring 1-2 weeks Daniel Robinson Fractured jaw 1 week Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

McVeigh, Cunningham and Robinson are likely to ramp up their training with the hope of returning in the next fortnight, but Cameron was injured in the Swans’ NEAFL game on Saturday and will have surgery on his right shoulder next week, ruling him out for the rest of the year. – Adam Curley

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Matthew Allen Foot TBC Josh Kennedy Calf 1 week Nic Naitanui* Knee Late 2017 season Jackson Nelson Hamstring TBC Willie Rioli Hamstring 4-5 weeks Simon Tunbridge Knee 1 week Daniel Venables Toe 2-3 weeks Jake Waterman Foot 4-5 weeks Updated: Friday, June 16

Track watch

Spearhead Kennedy just fell short of returning against Geelong, but defender Sharrod Wellingham has been cleared to return from an ankle injury and will play for East Perth this weekend. Venables would’ve made his debut on Thursday against the Cats but has turf toe from a training incident, while Allen appears to have suffered a major setback with stress fractures in his foot. Nelson injured his hamstring in the game on Thursday night. – Travis King

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Marcus Adams Foot 10-12 weeks Tom Boyd Back Test Travis Cloke Soreness TBC Stewart Crameri Hip Season Josh Dunkley Shoulder 8-9 weeks Fergus Greene Wrist 6-8 weeks Dale Morris Ankle Test Robert Murphy Hamstring 2-3 weeks Josh Prudden Hamstring Test Clay Smith Calf Test Roarke Smith Knee Season Updated: Thursday, June 15

Track watch

Premiership stars Tom Boyd and Dale Morris will return from injury for Sunday’s clash with Melbourne at Etihad Stadium, but Clay Smith will not feature in the seniors. Travis Cloke will miss due to soreness. The loss of Adams to a foot injury is a significant blow to the premiers. – Ryan Davidson

*Placed on the club’s long-term injury list

UPDATE: The full injury list, round three

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Kyle Cheney Hamstring 2 weeks Ben Davis Foot Indefinite Tom Doedee Knee 1 week Cam Ellis-Yolmen* Knee Season Josh Jenkins Ribs 1 week Alex Keath Hamstring 4-6 weeks Paul Seedsman Groin TBC Scott Thompson Corked adductor Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Jenkins failed his fitness and will miss the Showdown with Port Adelaide on Saturday night. Crouch will return in the SANFL this weekend after injuring his hamstring for a third time in January. – Lee Gaskin

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Allen Christensen Shoulder 2-3 weeks Rhys Mathieson Ankle 2-4 weeks Sam Skinner* Knee 2 weeks Reuben William Shoulder 3-4 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

The Lions are in good shape after the weekend return of draftees Hugh McCluggage (ankle) and Alex Witherden (broken leg), along with Josh Schache (knee) and Marco Paparone (hamstring) through the NEAFL. Christensen is expected to start contact work this week and is hoping to be available by round five. – Michael Whiting

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Patrick Cripps Fractured jaw Test Daniel Gorringe Achilles 6 weeks Jed Lamb Knee 2 weeks Sam Rowe Concussion Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Patrick Cripps (fractured jaw) and Sam Rowe (concussion) trained on Thursday afternoon and will be given every opportunity to line up against Essendon on Sunday. There is good news for the Blues as ruckman Andrew Phillips and rookie small forward Kym Lebois will play in the VFL opening round match against Port Melbourne at North Port Oval on Saturday. Phillips missed the JLT Community Series after suffering a stress reaction in his left foot in January and is likely to play limited game-time against the Borough. Lebois played one pre-season game against Melbourne at Casey Fields and kicked a spectacular goal before succumbing to an ankle injury. – Howard Kotton

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Callum Brown Ankle Test Mason Cox Knee TBC Jordan De Goey Broken hand/suspended 4-5 weeks Jamie Elliott Ankle Test Levi Greenwood Hip Test Tom Langdon Knee and ankle 1-2 weeks Brayden Sier Hamstring tightness Test Ben Sinclair* Hamstring 6-8 weeks Daniel Wells Calf 1-2 weeks Rupert Wills Quad Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Elliott will play in the VFL this week, while Greenwood will take on the Swans after making a rapid recovery from hip surgery. De Goey will still be sidelined for an extended period with a broken knuckle and a club-imposed three-match suspension for initially lying about how he sustained the injury. Ex-Roo Wells is closing in on a long-awaited debut for the Pies and could be ready for round four. Wills and Brown have recovered and could be available to play in the VFL. Mason Cox copped a knock to the knee late in a VFL practice match but played out the game. – Ben Collins

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Josh Green Hamstring 1-2 weeks Ben Howlett Hamstring 2-3 weeks Jayden Laverde Ankle 12 weeks David Myers* Finger 3-5 weeks Jordan Ridley* Back 12 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Essendon has added midfielder Ben Howlett to its injury list, although the hamstring strain he suffered in his return game against the Brisbane Lions last week was relatively minor as by Tuesday he was back running laps at the club. That aside, the Bombers remain in a good position with the health of their list. Ruck pair Matthew Leuenberger (hamstring) and Tom Bellchambers (knee) are available after recovering from their injuries, giving the Bombers close to a full side to select from. – Callum Twomey

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Michael Apeness Knee 3-5 weeks Hayden Ballantyne Hamstring 6-8 weeks Harley Bennell Calf TBA Zac Clarke* Knee TBA Josh Deluca Groin 2-4 weeks Taylin Duman Ankle 1 week Ryan Nyhuis Shin 2-3 weeks Alex Pearce Leg TBA Matthew Uebergang Hamstring TBA Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Harley Bennell has had another setback with his troublesome calf. Hayden Ballantyne has progressed into strength work and is on target to return as scheduled following hamstring surgery. Luke Ryan pulled up well from his first game in about nine months following an ankle issue. – Travis King

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Ryan Abbott Back 2-3 weeks Nakia Cockatoo Hand 2-3 weeks Josh Cowan Managed 1 week Corey Gregson* Foot 8 weeks Cameron Guthrie Calf Test George Horlin-Smith Fractured thumb 1 week Timm House Shoulder Test Jake Kolodjashnij Groin Test Scott Selwood Toe Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Geelong has a bye in the VFL this week, which makes it likely Selwood and Kolodjashnij will be given an extra week before returning. House is yet to play a game in the blue and white hoops so the delay won’t hurt, while Guthrie has been selected to play against Melbourne. Zac Smith played well in the VFL last Saturday after being a late withdrawal from round one. – Peter Ryan

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Dan Currie Knee Test Sam Day Hip Season Mitch Hallahan Hamstring Test Tom Nicholls Shoulder Test Michael Rischitelli Knee Indefinite Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

One positive from the wreckage of Saturday’s loss to GWS was there were no new injuries. Hallahan and Currie are expected to be fine to play NEAFL this weekend, while Rischitelli’s rehabilitation from an ACL is still on track, completing some agility work on Tuesday. He is expected back sometime in May. – Michael Whiting

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Stephen Coniglio Ankle 4 weeks Matt de Boer Hamstring 1-2 weeks Brett Deledio Calf TBC Tom Downie* Illness Indefinite Tendai Mzungu Hamstring 10-12 weeks Jonathon Patton Hip Test Lachie Whitfield Suspended Round eight Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Patton, who has been battling a hip problem he picked up in round one, was named as an emergency for round three. Mzungu has commenced his long road back, but former Fremantle teammate Matt de Boer has been running strongly and should be back in the next fortnight. Coniglio could be fit to take on the Western Bulldogs in round six is his rehab goes well, while a return date for Deledio remains a mystery. – Adam Curley

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Grant Birchall Fractured jaw 4 weeks Jonathon Ceglar* Knee 12 weeks Kieran Lovell Shoulder Late season Jonathan O’Rourke Hamstring 1 week Liam Shiels Corked thigh Test Isaac Smith Corked thigh Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Birchall will miss a month with his jaw injury, but will be back running by the end of the week, while the club expects vice-captains Shiels and Smith to be available to play Gold Coast on Sunday despite their corkies against the Crows. Midfielder Jonathan O’Rourke is back doing ball work and will return at VFL level next week, however second-year midfielder Kieran Lovell has had surgery on an injured shoulder and won’t be back until later this year. The dreaded curse of the No.36 jumper at Hawthorn strikes again. – Ashley Browne

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Colin Garland* Knee Season Jesse Hogan Suspended Round five Jay Kennedy-Harris Arm Test Mitch King* Knee 3 weeks Michael Hibberd Achilles 1-2 weeks Liam Hulett Hip flexor 2 weeks Jordan Lewis Suspended Round six Pat McKenna Hamstring TBC Joel Smith Shoulder 3-4 months Aaron vandenBerg Heel 4-6 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Suspensions to Hogan and Lewis hurt immensely, but importantly for Melbourne it looks like getting a few players back from injury. Hibberd is tracking along nicely and could be ready to play next week, although he may need a game or two in the VFL for conditioning purposes. Hibberd played just one JLT Community Series game and missed the entire 2016 season due to a WADA-imposed suspension. Josh Wagner and Sam Frost played a half in the VFL at the weekend as they returned from a leg and toe injury respectively. – Ben Guthrie

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Paul Ahern* Knee Season Ben Jacobs Foot 3 weeks Oscar Junker Broken tibia 9-11 weeks Jy Simpkin Corked thigh 1 week Jarrad Waite Shoulder 3-5 weeks Mason Wood Knee 3 weeks Scott Thompson Suspension Round four Todd Goldstein Ankle Test Sam Wright Ankle 3 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Ben Brown (knee) and Majak Daw (ankle/knee) had scans on Monday, but are expected to play against Greater Western Sydney on Saturday. Todd Goldstein should also make the trip to Hobart after being a late withdrawal last round because of a training mishap. But Sam Wright failed to take his place in Werribee’s VFL practice match last Sunday and remains a week-to-week proposition. – Marc McGowan

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Jack Hombsch Knee 3-4 weeks Dougal Howard Knee Test Angus Monfries Hamstring 3 weeks Jasper Pittard Hamstring Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Key defender Jack Hombsch will miss up to a month after a medial ligament strain to his right knee against Fremantle last weekend. Pittard was named to play SANFL this week after missing the opening two games of the season. Hamish Hartlett regained his place in the side, while unlucky forward Angus Monfries will be sidelined for three weeks after injuring his hamstring at training last week. – Lee Gaskin

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Nathan Broad* Shoulder TBA Mabior Chol Concussion Test Shane Edwards Hip 3-6 weeks Jack Graham* Ankle Indefinite Ben Griffiths Concussion 1 week Shaun Hampson* Back Indefinite Dustin Martin Fractured cheekbone Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Dustin Martin will play with a minor undisplaced fracture to his right cheekbone, wearing a helmet if necessary. He trained on Thursday but avoided contact work earlier in the week. Chol was back in full training this week after suffering concussion in a VFL practice game. Edwards has joined the rehab group after injuring his hip late in last Thursday’s win against Collingwood. Hampson stepped up his training this week, joining the main group for the opening parts of Thursday’s session. Midfielder Dion Prestia has appeared to be managed but did more than he has in previous weeks in the lead-up to the West Coast clash. – Nathan Schmook

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

David Armitage Groin 1 week Nick Coughlan Foot 3 weeks Sean Dempster TBC TBC Hugh Goddard Achilles 1 week Ben Long Suspended Round three Nick Riewoldt Knee Test Jack Steven Punctured lung TBC Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Nick Riewoldt has been named to face the Brisbane Lions on Sunday, but David Armitage failed a fitness test on his injured groin. Jack Steven will miss at least a week after a punctured lung versus West Coast. – Dinny Navaratnam

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Isaac Heeney Glandular fever 2-3 weeks Alex Johnson* Knee Indefinite Jarrad McVeigh Calf 2 weeks Tom Papley* Knee/shin Test Dane Rampe Arm 7 weeks Dan Robinson Collarbone 5-8 weeks Gary Rohan* Back/hamstring 2 weeks Kurt Tippett Ankle 2 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Tippett won’t play Friday night and with a round four clash against West Coast on Thursday week, the Swans are hopeful he’ll be available, but the short turnaround might hurt him. Heeney and McVeigh are running well at training, but they’re looking at a round five comeback at the earliest. Rampe has his left arm in a sling for at least the next two weeks before he can start mobility and strength work, and looks set to miss almost two months of footy, while Papley and Rohan are back to full training and should be available to play at some level in the next 2-3 weeks. – Adam Curley

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Matthew Allen Hamstring 1 week Tom Cole Quad 1 week Scott Lycett* Shoulder 8-10 weeks Nic Naitanui* Knee Late 2017 season Drew Petrie Hand 10 weeks Willie Rioli Hamstring 6-8 weeks Simon Tunbridge Knee Mid-late 2017 season Jake Waterman Foot 8 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Eric Mackenzie was still on light duties at Monday training after being rested for round two due to knee and toe soreness, but he and Lewis Jetta – who played for East Perth after a glute scare – will be available this week. Scott Lycett is due to resume running shortly after undergoing surgery on his dislocated shoulder. The ruckman is about two months away for returning, as is goalsneak Willie Rioli, whose recovery timeframe has been pushed out slightly to six-to-eight weeks after hamstring tendon surgery. – Travis King

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Estimated Return

Kyle Cheney Hamstring 2 weeks Ben Davis Foot Indefinite Tom Doedee Knee 1 week Cam Ellis-Yolmen * Knee Season Josh Jenkins Ribs Test Alex Keath Hamstring 4-6 weeks Paul Seedsman Groin TBC Scott Thompson Corked adductor Test Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Jenkins will have a fitness test on his bruised ribs to see if he takes his spot in the side for the Showdown with Port Adelaide on Saturday night. Crouch will return in the SANFL this weekend after injuring his hamstring for a third time in January. – Lee Gaskin

Player

Injury

Allen Christensen Shoulder 2-3 weeks Rhys Mathieson Ankle 2-4 weeks Sam Skinner* Knee 2 weeks Reuben William Shoulder 3-4 weeks Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Patrick Cripps Fractured jaw Test Daniel Gorringe Achilles 6 weeks Jed Lamb Knee 2 weeks Sam Rowe Concussion Test Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Carlton remains hopeful Cripps can face the Bombers despite suffering a hairline fracture to his jaw in the clash with Jordan Lewis last Sunday. Cripps will be tested this week, as will key defender Sam Rowe, who was concussed after a strike from Jesse Hogan. Jed Lamb had scans on his knee last week and will miss two weeks. Daniel Gorringe injured his Achilles in the JLT Community Series and has not progressed as well as the Blues had hoped. After being sent to the AIS in Canberra for further assessment, he will be on the sidelines for another six weeks. – Howard Kotton

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Callum Brown Ankle Test Mason Cox Knee TBC Jordan De Goey Broken hand/suspended 4-5 weeks Jamie Elliott Ankle Test Levi Greenwood Hip Test Tom Langdon Knee and ankle 1-2 weeks Brayden Sier Hamstring tightness Test Ben Sinclair * Hamstring 6-8 weeks Daniel Wells Calf 1-2 weeks Rupert Wills Quad Test Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Elliott hopes to be passed fit for the Pies’ clash with Sydney at the SCG on Friday night, while Greenwood could also be available after making a rapid recovery from hip surgery. De Goey will still be sidelined for an extended period with a broken knuckle and a club-imposed three-match suspension for initially lying about how he sustained the injury. Ex-Roo Wells is closing in on a long-awaited debut for the Pies and could be ready for round four. Wills and Brown have recovered and could be available to play in the VFL. Mason Cox copped a knock to the knee late in a VFL practice match but played out the game. – Ben Collins

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Josh Green Hamstring 1-2 weeks Ben Howlett Hamstring 2-3 weeks Jayden Laverde Ankle 12 weeks David Myers* Finger 3-5 weeks Jordan Ridley* Back 12 weeks Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Michael Apeness Knee 3-5 weeks Hayden Ballantyne Hamstring 6-8 weeks Harley Bennell Calf TBA Zac Clarke Knee TBA Josh Deluca Groin 2-4 weeks Taylin Duman Ankle 1 week Ryan Nyhuis Shin 2-3 weeks Alex Pearce Leg TBA Matthew Uebergang Hamstring TBA Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Harley Bennell is expected to finally be back training with the main group this week after his long-running calf issues, which needed more treatment last week. Hayden Ballantyne has progressed into strength work and is on target to return as scheduled following hamstring surgery. Luke Ryan pulled up well from his first game in about nine months following an ankle issue. – Travis King

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Ryan Abbott Back 2-3 weeks Nakia Cockatoo Hand 2-3 weeks Corey Gregson* Foot 8 weeks Cameron Guthrie Calf Test Timm House Shoulder Test Jake Kolodjashnij Groin Test Scott Selwood Toe Test Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Geelong has a bye in the VFL this week, which makes it likely Selwood and Kolodjashnij will be given an extra week before returning. House is yet to play a game in the blue and white hoops so the delay won’t hurt, while Guthrie is a chance to play against Melbourne. Zac Smith played well in the VFL last Saturday after being a late withdrawal from round one. – Peter Ryan

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Dan Currie Knee Test Sam Day Hip Season Mitch Hallahan Hamstring Test Tom Nicholls Shoulder Test Michael Rischitelli Knee Indefinite Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Early prognosis

Patton will have to get through training later this week to prove his fitness after being a late withdrawal last week, with the key forward battling a hip problem he picked up in round one. Mzungu has commenced his long road back, but former Fremantle teammate Matt de Boer has been running strongly and should be back in the next fortnight. Coniglio could be fit to take on the Western Bulldogs in round six is his rehab goes well, while a return date for Deledio remains a mystery. – Adam Curley

Early prognosis

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Hamish Hartlett Illness Available Dougal Howard Knee Test Angus Monfries Hamstring 3 weeks Jasper Pittard Hamstring Test Updated: Monday, April 3

Early prognosis

Third in the Power’s best and fairest last year, Pittard could return for Saturday’s Showdown with Adelaide after missing the opening two games of the season. Hartlett is expected to regain his place in the side, while unlucky forward Angus Monfries will be sidelined for three weeks after injuring his hamstring at training last week. – Lee Gaskin

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Shai Bolton Suspended Round five Mabior Chol Concussion Test Shane Edwards Hip 3-6 weeks Jack Graham* Ankle Indefinite Ben Griffiths Concussion TBC Shaun Hampson* Back Indefinite Dustin Martin Fractured cheekbone Test Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Dustin Martin is likely to play with a minor undisplaced fracture to his right cheekbone, wearing a helmet if necessary. He trained on Tuesday but avoided contact work. Chol is also likely to play after completing a full session on Tuesday five days after suffering concussion in a VFL practice game. Edwards has joined the rehab group after injuring his hip late in last Thursday’s win against Collingwood. Hampson is doing very little on the track at this stage with a chronic back injury. – Nathan Schmook

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

David Armitage Groin Test Nick Coughlan Foot 3 weeks Sean Dempster TBC TBC Hugh Goddard Achilles 1 week Ben Long Suspended Round three Nick Riewoldt Knee Test Jack Steven Punctured lung TBC Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Nick Riewoldt is unlikely to face the Brisbane Lions on Sunday but if he responds well to an increased training load, a return isn’t out of the question. However, he could be on the sidelines for a few more weeks yet. Jack Steven will miss at least a week after a punctured lung versus West Coast and David Armitage’s groin will be tested. – Dinny Navaratnam

Early prognosis

The Dogs escaped the thrilling win over Sydney unscathed, but they won’t be welcoming back any injured stars in the near future. Tory Dickson and Mitch Wallis are at least a month away as they’ll both need a few games in the VFL to gain match fitness. Jordan Roughead’s return from a serious hamstring complaint has been slow and steady. First-year ruckman Tim English and key defender Kieran Collins are both expected to play in Footscray’s VFL season opener on April 14. – Ryan Davidson
