MELBOURNE forward James Frawley is "touch and go" for the Demons' Saturday night clash with the Western Bulldogs at the MCG as he tries to shake off a toe complaint.
Frawley injured a ligament in a toe on his left foot in the club's memorable win over Adelaide on Saturday evening.
The Demon failed to train and AFL.com.au spotted him in a moon boot at the club on Tuesday, raising concerns over his availability.
He was also in the boot and on crutches immediately after the Crows game.
"We think he is (a chance to play). It'll be one of those things where it'll go down to Thursday and see how it trains," Melbourne coach Paul Roos said.
"He'll be touch and go and we hope that he gets up, obviously."
Meanwhile, Bulldogs coach Brendan McCartney said his side needed to hone its ability to finish games over four quarters.
"Right now we're in games for nearly all the way, but we're not closing them out and that's the next step," he said.
Both Roos and McCartney were on hand to help launch the Field of Women event at the MCG on Tuesday.
The Breast Cancer Network Australia is urging fans to be part of a group of 15,000 people who will stand on the MCG to form the shape of the Pink Lady before the game.
