GIANTS stars Jesse Hogan and Josh Kelly will both miss Thursday’s clash with the Bombers, with the experienced duo being managed due to the short five-day turnaround.
All-Australian defender Sam Taylor is targeting a return in next week’s Sydney Derby, with the 26-year-old progressing to team training and increased conditioning this week.
Young duo Nathan Wardius and Ollie Hannaford are building their running and training loads, with an eye on returning in the final rounds of the VFL season.
A return to play timeline has been determined for Brent Daniels, with the small forward aiming to return late in the home and away season.
Wade Derksen is currently managing a rolled ankle but will also consult a foot and ankle specialist, due to ongoing toe soreness.
The GIANTS will take on the Bombers at Marvel Stadium on Thursday night.
