SYDNEY are confident Isaac Heeney will back up on Friday night after copping a knock to his quad in the loss to Essendon.
Coach John Longmire said the forward “pulled up fine” and “should be fine” to play against the Western Bulldogs.
“He essentially just got a bad knee to the top of his quad, and so that can hurt during the course of the game and particularly if you come out of half time and it’s cooled down a little bit, but he’s looked after it and pulled up well,” Longmire praised.
