Where is Warnock at?

A while back (mid-Feb) there was an article published on the CFC website stating that Warnock was still a chance to overcome his injury and be available for selection in Round 1. Just wondering if anyone has heard anything since? Is he still a chance to play? Is his recovery going well?

Robert Warnock steps up

NEW Carlton ruckman Robert Warnock is on track to play Round 1 in the VFL as his recovery from a foot injury gathers momentum.

He has increased his training load after a series of shoulder, ankle and foot problems wiped out his summer.

Blues' football manager Stephen Icke said the club was optimistic Warnock could run out with the Northern Bullants in their season-opener on April 12. But a return date to AFL was less clear for the former Fremantle Docker.

"Round 1 in the VFL might be about right, but he may not be back playing AFL until mid-season because his pre-season effectively started only one week ago," Icke said.

"He is a long way behind everyone else. But his fitness comes on pretty quickly."

Good and bad news there. Ruck division seems to be going pretty well without him though so I guess there's no rush.
