BRISBANE remains hopeful that veteran midfielder Nigel Lappin will make a long-awaited return from injury this weekend.
Lappin has not played for seven weeks due to an Achilles tendon injury but he's listed for a fitness test at training and looks set to play for the Lions reserves.
Brisbane coach Leigh Matthews said full-forward Daniel Bradshaw was unlikely to return from a hamstring injury for Saturday's nights clasg against Adelaide at the Gabba.
But Matthews expects midfielder Michael Rischitelli, who was a late withdrawal from last weekend's match against the Western Bulldogs with a hip problem to return while fellow midfielder Scott Harding (knee) is also in line for a recall.
