Giants win one, lose one

THE GWS Giants have dismissed Jeremy Cameron’s injury concerns ahead of Saturday’s clash with St Kilda, but could again be without midfield star Josh Kelly who is struggling with a groin injury.

Kelly missed the Giants’ win over Fremantle in Canberra with continued soreness in his hip area and is still struggling to get on top of it.

“He’s a week-by-week proposition at the moment,” Giants football manager Wayne Campbell said.

“We are being conservative with him, he’s a chance to train tomorrow but we will make a call on him later in the week.”

Cameron left the field with knee soreness early in Saturday’s game against the Dockers but returned to play out the match. He was also wearing a moon boot on the return flight to Sydney as he manages ongoing soreness in his foot.

“Jeremy jammed his knee in the turf,” Campbell said. “He tends to do things at a million miles an hour but there is no structural damage and no lingering soreness. He’ll be fine.”

Giants coach Leon Cameron expressed concerns Cameron was beginning to miss too much training as he dealt with week-to-week soreness of continued heavy clashes.

“We need to get him right early in the week,” Cameron said. “We don’t want to get into a cycle where he doesn’t train during the week and it catches up on game day. Sometimes you cringe at things he does and the way he attacks the ball. He’s had one of those runs the last three weeks where he’s copped some really good hits.”
