Nth Melbourne defender Robbie Tarrant has been sidelined with a foot injury, he underwent a procedure last week in an attempt to relieve the pain from the ball of his foot.

The injury for Tarrant is not likely to sideline him from Round 1 at this stage, it is worth motioning his status through the pre-season just in case there is no improvement and an opportunity does open up in the defence for the Kangaroos.

Tarrant is a pass in classic & and a very late selection in deep draft leagues only.
