ADELAIDE defender Graham Johncock is a chance to play in Sunday's crucial clash against Richmond at AAMI Stadium after receiving the all clear from the club’s leadership group.
Johncock was sent back to the SANFL two weeks ago after failing to meet the necessary standards of preparation.
Adelaide skipper Simon Goodwin said there had been a marked improvement in the 25-year-old's approach to preparing for AFL football.
“His attitude towards his training, his fitness and the attitude he’s gone back to the Port Adelaide Magpies with has been sensational. Full credit to Graham and we’re looking forward to seeing the benefits of Graham playing some great footy for us,” he said.
“Graham had some guidelines we wanted to see and he’s delivered on that over the last couple of weeks. His preparation has improved over the last couple of weeks, we’ve seen that, we know he can do it; it’s just a matter of him doing it on a long-term basis now.
“We’re confident Graham will come into the team, play his role to the level that we expect.”
