Key forward James Stewart should be available for Essendon’s blockbuster ANZAC Day match against Collingwood next Wednesday.
Stewart left the ground late in the last quarter of the Bombers’ victory over Port Adelaide last week, but Essendon Physical Performance Manager Justin Crow says the former Giant should take his place.
“James had a light roll of the ankle late in the game towards the end of the match (and) pulled up really well the next day with minimal swelling,” Crow said in the SKINS Injury Update on Wednesday.
“He’s been strapped up (and) did a little bit of light skills today.
“Our main session’s on Sunday and we’ll expect him to complete that and be available for the match on ANZAC Day.”
