Hawthorn forward Jarryd Roughead will be hoping he can limit his stint on the sidelines to just one week and make a return to the line-up that takes on St Kilda on Sunday.
Roughead suffered a corked thigh after a training mishap at the Hawks captain’s run session last week.
Debutant Dylan Moore replaced the former skipper in a late change after Roughead was unable to get over the soreness in time to face North Melbourne.
Meanwhile fellow key forward Mitch Lewis continued to push his case for senior selection as he delivered another strong performance for Box Hill on Sunday.
Lewis booted four goals in the Hawks win, with Box Hill Coach Max Bailey commending the 20-year-old on his ability to compete in the air.
“Mitch kicked four goals and competed really well in the air, even against two or three opponents,” Bailey said.
“It was another huge step forward for him.”
Midfielder Daniel Howe has now spent the past three weeks building up his match practice with Box Hill after an injury-interrupted summer.
Howe was also among the VFL side’s best, collecting 16 disposals in a combative effort for the reigning premiers.
“Dan played inside mid and was really strong and physical,” Bailey said.
“It wasn’t a high possession game by both teams, but he played a big part in our midfield matching Casey’s contested game.”
Hawthorn will look to register its third win of the season when it takes on St Kilda at Marvel Stadium at 3.20pm this Saturday.
