Adelaide coach Don Pyke has confirmed forward Tom Lynch will miss this week's clash with Carlton due to illness.

Lynch failed to train on Wednesday after coming down with a viral infection.

โ€œUnfortunately, Lynchy has picked up a viral infection. Weโ€™re running some tests to work out what that is, but the indication from the doctor is that heโ€™s not going to be available this week,โ€ Pyke said.

โ€œWeโ€™ll see how the results come up and take it from there.โ€

Meanwhile, Charlie Cameron (wrist) and Luke Brown (ankle) also remain in doubt.

โ€œCharlie was unable to train this morning with that wrist injury,โ€ Pyke added.

โ€œWeโ€™ll assess how that looks โ€ฆ and if heโ€™s not right he wonโ€™t play.

 

โ€œLuke did some running today. Heโ€™ll do a bit more training tomorrow, but there were some really positive signs.

โ€œHeโ€™s pretty confident, so weโ€™ll give him a chance tomorrow to have a run and make the decision from there.โ€

Adelaide travel to Melbourne to face Carlton at the MCG on Saturday afternoon.
