Gun ruckman Brodie Grundy (toe) and star defender Jack Crisp (hip and back) showed they were over their ailments during modified match simulation at Olympic Park on Monday morning.
The dashing Crisp, who had post-season hip surgery and has since managed a back issue, completed part of the main session on Friday before upping his workload on Monday.
The return of this influential pair is welcome news for the Pies given the concerns over star forwards Jordan De Goey (mid-foot sprain), Will Hoskin-Elliott (knee) and defender Jeremy Howe (thigh).
Away from the main group, midfielders Adam Treloar and Tom Phillips were joined for some running by injury-prone trio in defender Darcy Moore and forwards Jamie Elliott and Ben Reid, along with Callum Brown and Rupert Wills.
Phillips was sore after Friday's match simulation, as was improving runner Josh Daicos, who completed some run-throughs by himself as he tried to deal with a corked left thigh.
Veteran full-back Lynden Dunn continued to ramp up his training in his quest for an early-season return from a knee reconstruction, while fellow knee victim Matthew Scharenberg diligently went about a series of strengthening and agility exercises.
In the match simulation session in relatively confined space, Dayne Beams was one of the notables to show his class, finishing his work by nailing a left-foot snap.
So we still have a few injuries to contend with 5 weeks out before season proper starts.......Oh well faithfull just hope we make top 4 and have our best players on the park when the whips are cracking during finals.If we do, no one will stop us this time around.
GO PIES!

its the first time since probably 2013 where its a genuine struggle to pick a best 22 without feeling like some players out of it should be inOur best players is so open tho this year will be very interesting in terms of our best 22 and i hope the whole squad applies pressure to get into the Senior Team.
Melbourne is apparently going to live stream the match against us

I’ll be wagging work Friday to go down for a squizz.
A break from footy has been healthy after the GF heartbreak, but I’m starting to champ at the bit now seeing pics of Beamsy et al on the track.
It has begun!
Was thinking exactly the same on the ball drops.Have high hopes for the boys this year. Lots of depth.
On another note (and I know I'm an armchair critic), however, a lot of guys had untidy ball drops in the slow mo training video.
Treloar, Adams and Sidey all released the ball high and the ball hit their foot on a strange angle.
Isaac Quaynor had one of the more tidy kicking actions.
Some people's balls only drop at a certain timeWas thinking exactly the same on the ball drops.
