RUCK Matilda Scholz has been cleared of any serious injury and is expected to be available to play Gold Coast on Saturday.
Teenager Scholz came from the field clutching at her right knee after hitting it on the ground mid-way through the last quarter of Friday night’s win against St Kilda.
She had a precautionary scan on Monday afternoon, which confirmed no structural damage to the knee and its ligaments and has resumed training in expectation she will be fit to take on the Suns.
Forward Julia Teakle is expected to resume running in the coming days following an arthroscopy last week, as she progresses towards a return from a knee injury.
There were no other injury concerns to emerge following Friday’s victory over the Saints.
Yartapuulti will on Thursday evening name its side to face Gold Coast at People’s Choice Stadium.
That game gets underway at 3:05pm AEST / 3:35pm ACDT.
If you can’t get to the Gold Coast to watch the game, it will be broadcast live on 7Two, Fox Footy and Kayo.
