DEFENDER Luke Tapscott faces a fitness test in the lead-up to Sunday’s clash against West Coast Eagles at Etihad Stadium.

Tapscott suffered a neck injury during last round’s loss against Carlton at the MCG.

Dasher Rohan Bail (knee) is also a chance to return after being sidelined for the past 12 matches.

Bail played the opening seven matches before he suffered the injury.

Versatile tall Michael Newton (foot) will miss another 1-2 weeks.

As expected, James Strauss will miss the rest of the season, after sustaining a nasty broken leg against the Blues last Saturday.

Jack Grimes (foot), Jake Spencer (knee) and Michael Evans (back) will miss the rest of 2011.
