sprained his ankle in the side’s second practice match against St Kilda and will be assessed for selection this week.

“Jye suffered a minor sprained ankle against St Kilda. He’s been really diligent with his rehabilitation which has enabled him to return to running in a short amount of time. He has satisfied all the milestones set by the high-performance team and will reintegrate into the main group this week,” McPherson said.

is in some doubt ahead of Essendon’s round 22 clash with North Melbourne.

Caldwell was subbed out of last week’s match at three-quarter time with a hip complaint and has been labelled as a test for Saturday afternoon’s fixture.

GM of Performance Daniel McPherson said the 22-year-old will be given every opportunity to prove his fitness.

“Jye experienced some tightness in his hip flexor during last week’s game, which was the reason he was subbed out at three-quarter time,” McPherson said.

“We’ve managed his loads this week and we’re hopeful he’ll be able to take his place in this week’s side, but we won’t know for sure until later in the week."

Listed as test:

GM of Performance Daniel McPherson said all players must get through main training without issue to be considered for selection.

“We’re really pleased [they] are all close to a return, and provided they have a good week, we expect they’ll be pushing to be available for selection,” McPherson said.

“Once we get through main training, we’ll be better placed to make a call on whether or not each of them is ready to go.”
