Jack Viney has taken another big stride forward in his bid to return from injury to Melbourne’s team for the club’s first final since 2006.
Co-captain Viney, who has not played since round 16 because of a toe injury on his right foot, took part in full competitive training on Saturday and looks certain to be picked for Friday night’s elimination final against Geelong.
The 2016 club champion ran at full speed and kicked with both feet, taking part in match practice before running laps to complete the session.
“I think he has (done enough to play),” teammate Jake Melksham told reporters after training.
“He trained with us for the first time today since coming out of rehab, so he’ll train with the group again all of next week and prepare for the weekend. It’s pretty big. We know what Jack is going to bring every week. There’s no doubt that every time he comes into the team or when he plays, he lifts us.
