AARON O’Callaghan is a chance to play at some level for Geelong West this weekend.
The experienced playing assistant coach has been sidelined since Round 1 with a calf issue but is in line for a return for the clash with finals aspirants Thomson at West Oval.
“It was a little bit worse than first thought – it was a bit of a tendon,” said O’Callaghan, who oversaw the Giants’ 92-point win over Corio in Mitch Wight’s absence.
“I did the calf at training before Round 1, and because we were a little bit short – I think we had eight or nine out – I ended up pulling them (boots) on and got through.
“I went for a scan afterwards, and it wasn’t great.”

O’Callaghan, who stood in for absent coach Mitch Wight for the win over Corio, admits it’s been frustrating watching on as the Giants have compiled an 8-2 record.
“I’m just looking forward to getting back out there with them and being part of it,” he said.
“It’s really exciting times. The boys are a great bunch and tight-knit, so I’m looking forward to being a part of that a little bit more than what I am.”
