Hawthorn forward Jack Ginnivan is in line to face Collingwood this Saturday afternoon at the MCG, after missing the past two matches with a minor hairline crack in his fibula.

Youngster Massimo D'Ambrosio is also facing a fitness test ahead of the blockbuster clash after being subbed out of last Saturday's Round 18 match against Fremantle with an ankle injury.

High Performance Manager Peter Burge also provided an update on the injury statuses of Jasper Scaife, Chad Wingard and Mitch Lewis in this week's Nissan Injury Update. 

Jack Ginnivan (knee) - Test 

"Jack's tracking really well. On Saturday, he got moving out here and did a training session with Jack Price in our rehab group. He did some AlterG running and felt really good. We actually then took him outside on Saturday and started moving. We did a bit more yesterday, we did some strides and some run-throughs. Today, he progressed that and ran faster and then we put him into some football training as well so right now, it's looking really good for training on Thursday and obviously, for the game on the weekend, it's probably more in the 'likely' category." 

Massimo D'Ambrosio (ankle) - Test 

"He had an ankle inversion sprain in the game and acutely, just wasn't comfortable so he was subbed out of the game. But he's pulled up quite well and has run straight-line today on the AlterG treadmill. We'll assess and progress Thursday into some training hopefully, but there's a little bit of work to do between now and Thursday. He's given himself a chance and hopefully, he'll be more of a chance after Thursday." 

Jasper Scaife (finger) - 1-2 weeks 

"He was really unlucky. At main training last week on Thursday's session, we were doing a tackling drill and he just went to fend off, as you would do, and in that action, his finger got caught in an opposition jumper and he was quite sore. We thought it was a dislocation but further scanning showed that it was actually a break so he had surgery later that afternoon to fix that and he's now in a short-term rehab phase. He'll miss the game this weekend and we'll reassess for next week." 

Chad Wingard (calf) - 2-3 weeks 

"He had a bit of a niggling calf the past two weeks. We took some time out and got him to a position where he returned and played in the VFL. He didn't pull up as well as we would've liked last week but come Thursday, he was ready to go again and train. He said he was feeling good but it became apparent during the session that he wasn't as good as he thought he would be and we made the decision not to play on the weekend. We got some further scans which just showed that he irritated some scar tissue in his calf. We just need more time. We need to build some strength back into it, get a few sessions under our belt, back-to-back sessions, a body of work, so in two to three weeks, we'll look at returning to match play." 

Mitch Lewis (knee) - Season 

"He's been in nearly every day we've been here as a group. He's up and about, he's supporting his teammates, he's been super positive. He's booked in now for surgery next week. We'll get that done and start the journey of a rehab process. Mitch is ready to attack it, he's really positive and he's been fantastic around his teammates this week in particular. It's just great when he's around the club, he's a real presence for us and he's really good."
