Austin Wonaeamirri has made his decision to return to Melbourne and will commence training with the Club upon arrival.

Austin has spent the last seven weeks with family on the Tiwi Islands.

Austin met with Dean Bailey while the Club was in Darwin, where he informed his teammates of his desire to return to football.

Once Austin is conditioned to return to football, he will resume playing through the VFL with Casey in the coming weeks.

It is expected that Austin will arrive in Melbourne late this week.
