Melbourne's Liam Jurrah is set to make his long anticipated return to senior football this weekend, when he lines up for Melbourne Demons against Essenondon Bombers on Sunday.
Jurrah is expected to play his first game for the season after overcoming a shoulder injury.
"Jurrah is probably more likely to play than not," Melbourne coach Dean Bailey said on Friday.
"We have still got a training run to go through tomorrow, so hopefully he can get through the development class today and some weights.
"It will give our forward line a different look with... Liam up there.
"The guys haven't played a lot of footy... for the whole year; this is LJ's first game and the forward line has been a pretty tough place, not only for Josh Mahoney the coach but with the numbers that have gone through it.
"It's been very unsettled for the majority of the year so with LJ and Col back in the team you'd like to think they're a chance to kick some goals for us."
Bailey said Jurrah had shown in his most recent VFL hit-out and at training over the past week that he could offer the side something with his inclusion, but he was mainly looking for a high work rate from the exciting forward.

Central Australian football star Liam Jurrah has been awarded the Round 15 AFL Rising Stars nomination after staring with four goals for Melbourne in their win over Port Adelaide on the weekend.
Hailing from the Central Australia community of Yuendumu, Jurrah was taken number 1 in the AFL Pre-Season draft and has lit the football world alight since his debut in Round 12 this year against Essendon. His incredible pace and athleticism, coupled with his natural instincts and flair for attacking football, has already made him a cult hero with the Demons faithful. He has already showed glimpses of his spectactular vertical leap with some huge packmarks and has shown his nouse around goal with 7 goals in just his first 3 games.
Jurrah last year spent four weeks playing for the Collingwood VFL side last year before returning to Central Australia to lead Yuendumu to a historic premiership in the 2008 Ngurratjuta Cup. Jurrah also spent a short time playing for Nightcliff in the TIO NTFL competition in Darwin.
