MELBOURNE has received some good news ahead of Round 15, with four Demons set to return from injury this weekend.

Vice-captain Jack Viney will be hoping to slot straight into the senior side which faces Essendon on Saturday night, after recovering from a toe injury which has sidelined him since Round 6.

Joel Smith (knee), Deakyn Smith (ankle) and Bailey Laurie (cheekbone) will also be fit for selection.

Head of Medical, Laura Lallenec, has also confirmed that Marty Hore, Aaron Nietschke and Adam Tomlinson are all progressing well in their knee rehabilitation.
