Adelaide defender Rory Laird will be available for selection for Thursday night’s Gather Round game against Carlton after overcoming a minor soleus strain.
Crows General Manager High Performance Ian McKeown said the 271-game veteran successfully completed main training earlier this week.
“Lairdy will be available for selection, as will Isaac Cumming who was a late withdrawal last week with sickness,” he said.
But McKeown said key forward Darcy Fogarty - who was also a late withdrawal for Round Four's game against Fremantle after experiencing back soreness - won’t play this week.
“A more accurate timeline for Fog's return will be determined as he progresses through rehab this week,” he said.
Utility Luke Pedlar has entered the concussion protocols and will need to be symptom-free for 12 days before being eligible to play.
