Greater Western Sydney GIANTS co-captain Phil Davis is expected to return from injury following the mid-season bye.

Davis has missed the last five games with a back injury but is progressing well and is on track to help lead the GIANTS against North Melbourne on Sunday June 30 at Etihad Stadium.

A late withdrawal last week with a back complaint, ruckman Dean Brogan is expected to be available to play against Geelong on Saturday at ŠKODA Stadium.

Defender Tom Bugg has overcome an infection and is also expected to be available this week.
