WEST Coast ruckman Nic Naitanui won't require surgery to fix his ongoing Achilles tendon injury, but the star big man is set for another two months on the sidelines.

Naitanui struggled with Achilles soreness during the pre-season and he will miss a third straight game when the Eagles take on Fremantle in Sunday's Western Derby.

The 32-year-old met on Friday with medical staff, who determined a return "closer to mid-season" was the best option.
