FREMANTLE skipper Matthew Pavlich isn't carrying a knee injury according to coach Mark Harvey.
Pavlich's below par performance in the Dockers' 63-point loss to the Western Bulldogs last Sunday has led several AFL clubs to believe the Fremantle skipper is still suffering from the knee injury that ended his 2008 season two weeks early.
But Harvey said Pavlich was fine and that he was confident that his star forward would bounce back against Essendon at Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
"It's been a topic of debate the last couple of days, (but) there's nothing wrong with Pav," Harvey said.
"Pav's a proud person and you'll find that he'll rebound quite quickly."
"Not that I thought he had a (bad game). His game was okay but it wasn't to the normal standard."
