The GIANTS’ 105 point win over Carlton at Etihad Stadium has been dampened by injuries to Toby Greene, Dawson Simpson, Sam Taylor and Brett Deledio.

Despite the injuries GIANTS coach Leon Cameron said it’s not all doom and gloom for his side that now sits third on the ladder, with a host of players set to make their return next week for their clash with Adelaide at UNSW Canberra Oval.

Ruckman Dawson Simpson faces at least a couple of weeks on the sidelines with a left ankle issue, and when hamstring concerns for star forward Toby Greene and young defender Sam Taylor left the Giants with no-one on the bench for much of the second half, they played one and even two short on the field at times in the final term.

Deledio, 31, had ice strapped to his left calf against Carlton at Etihad Stadium after being hurt halfway through the second quarter.

"How long that'll be, you guys' guess is as good as mine. We'll scan that tomorrow and see where it's at," GWS coach Leon Cameron said after the 105-point win.

"It's disappointing for Brett because he's had such a tough last couple of years."

Simpson seemed in immense pain when we went down in the middle of the ground midway through the third term and was helped off the ground.

The 29-year-old has proven an able big man for GWS coach Leon Cameron in his eight games this season.

"(His) ankle is clearly a concern. He's rolled it inwards and no doubt we'll find a little bit more tomorrow," Cameron said.

"He's been playing some fantastic footy and obviously that ruck combination of him and Rory Lobb's been working for us.

"You'd have to say that's going to be at least a couple of weeks, and fingers crossed it's not any worse than that."

Taylor and Greene may face Adelaide next Saturday night.

Greene had been playing managed game time in his return for a foot injury and being forced to spend more time on field had GIANTS wary.

"Toby's a real interesting one. His hamstring was really tight. We know he's had an interrupted pre-season. We're managing his game time," Cameron said.

"We had to probably play him a little bit more than what we needed to and that probably just got us a little bit.

"We were a little bit worried about losing Greene for an extended period of time.

"He's actually a chance for next week because we managed him really, really well, and the medicos didn't want to send him back out there for fear of maybe doing some big, major damage."

On the plus side, a few are set to return.

"We expect (Tim) Taranto to play (against the Crows). His knee was a bit sore, but we expect him to play," Cameron said.

"We expect (Sam) Reid to play.

"Aidan Corr was pushing his case. He had a really good Saturday (at training).

"We expect (Ryan) Griffen to play and it's more likely that (Dylan) Shiel will play. We were a little bit worried Friday but all reports today, over the weekend he had some good results with his ankle, but he'll be the one that will be touch-and-go."

Reid had a knee issue while Griffen is dealing with a hamstring injury.

The GIANTS face the Crows, Sydney and Melbourne in its run home.
