Gary Ablett is progressing well in his return from a hamstring injury. 

Cats head physiotherapist Mark Young told the GMHBA Health Report that Ablett is not far away from ramping up his return to action.

“Gary’s going well. Gary ran again today, and his running sessions have been completed pretty well,” Young said.

“He’ll join in football later this week and from there he shouldn’t be too far away.”

Ablett injured his hamstring in the final quarter of the round three clash against West Coast, in what coach Chris Scott described as ‘a bit [more] significant’ than the hamstring injury he sustained in the pre-season.
