Fremantle could have up to three players return from injury this week against Sydney on Saturday at the SCG, according to high performance manager Jason Weber.
Michael Walters, Stephen Hill and Nathan Wilson are all listed as tests for selection.
Walters missed the past two weeks with a knee injury sustained against West Coast in round six and the small forward took part in the bulk of Tuesday’s training session.
“Michael trained really strongly this morning,” Weber said.
“He did most of the drills so we anticipate him having a good session here on Thursday and being available for match committee.”
Stephen Hill was a late withdrawal against St Kilda last Saturday due to quad tightness and remains a chance to return to the starting 22 against Sydney.
“Stephen’s progressed really well,” Weber said.
“He has been strong with his running and he had a bit of a kick this morning so he’ll be a test on Thursday but we’re very hopeful for him to play.”
Wilson missed the St Kilda clash with back soreness and will need to get through training on Thursday prior to earning a return.
“Nathan had a back injury very late in the game against Richmond,” Weber said.
“At this stage he’s progressing really well and he’ll be a test on Thursday. We’re confident he’ll get up.”

Three key Eagles will undergo fitness tests later this week as they vie for selection to take on Richmond this Sunday.
Dual all-Australian defender Jeremy McGovern (calf), speedy half-back Lewis Jetta (calf) and inside bull Dom Sheed (toe) are all a chance to take on the reigning premiers at Optus Stadium should they get through main training this Thursday.
West Coast general manager of football Craig Vozzo said the signs were good for the classy trio.
“We took a conservative approach with Jeremy last week with that calf,” Vozzo said.
“He’s recovering really well though and we expect him to be up and running and full training this week. If he gets through that he’ll be available to play.
