Squad Update: Round 15

Written by Melbourne United Media

Melbourne United will be without three key players through their pair of huge Round 15 games.

Isaac Humphries will likely miss the next two rounds with a sprain in his left MCL which limited him to just three minutes of action in United’s win over Tasmania.

Speaking to media on Tuesday, Head Coach Dean Vickerman said he was confident Humphries would return before the end of the regular season.

“'Ice has got a strain of his knee, but there’s a good chance he will be back before the end of the season,” Vickerman said.

David Barlow will also miss Melbourne’s games this round as he recovers from a concussion sustained in the win over the JackJumpers, while Makuach Maluach remains out with an illness.

Zac Triplett, Callum Dalton and Lachie Barker will come into the team for the pair of road games.
