Fremantle stars Matthew Pavlich, Aaron Sandilands and Michael Barlow trained strongly at the club’s first main session of the week ahead of Sunday’s game against St Kilda.

Barlow missed last week’s loss to Geelong with a jaw injury
, while veterans Pavlich and Sandilands have been out most of the season.





Classy midfielder David Mundy, who has sat out the past two games with a calf injury, was not on the track.

Neither was Michael Johnson, who hurt his knee in the second quarter of Saturday’s game against Geelong but played out the second half.

Lee Spurr was a late withdrawal against the Cats with a bout of gastro. He only participated in light duties, along with Zac Dawson, Chris Mayne, Nick Suban and Danyle Pearce.



All Australian defender Luke McPharlin undertook a series of stretches and short runs before leaving the track.

A 25-man squad will be announced at 4.25pm WST on Thursday before being finalised when the team has its final main training session on Friday morning.
