A look at each club's injury list heading into Round 22.

Who will be right and who is struggling? We find out when your wounded stars will be back.
The Crows are confident co-captainSloanewill be available to take on Collingwood at Adelaide Oval on Saturday.

The Hawks didn't provide an update onMcEvoy, but his strained adductor shouldn't keep him out for another week. There is doubt onLewis' status for this week's game after pulling up sore from the win over Greater Western Sydney, and he might be the one to make way forJarryd Roughead's return.Birchall's season is effectively over.-Marc McGowan

Retirement-bound defenderThompsonwas one of the Roos' best players in the 55-point loss to Geelong, but his night ended early with concussion. He had a significant 'egg' on his head after Sam Menegola brought him to ground after his seventh intercept mark, and he will be monitored this week. Meanwhile,Dom Tyson(calf) won 16 disposals in his return game in the VFL on Saturday, after a frustrating run of calf problems that had sidelined him since early May. In other positive news,McKenziecould make his VFL debut if he passes a fitness test. First-year forwardTaylorwas rested at the weekend, whileWatson's season is over. - Marc McGowan
