THE Western Bulldogs' finals charge is hitting top gear with several key players available for selection this week.
Running defender Jarrod Harbrow is certain to return for the Dogs' clash against Adelaide on Sunday after he was a late withdrawal last week with the flu.
Midfielder Callan Ward, who missed the Dogs' win against North Melbourne with a hip problem, is also rated a strong chance to be available.
The Dogs have won four games in a row - their longest streak in more than 12 months - to jump into the top four.
The Australian reports ruckman Will Minson and forward Brennan Stack are likely to resume from injuries in the VFL this weekend.
Their recovery gives the Dogs enviable depth approaching the finals, with veteran Nathan Eagleton, defender Dylan Addison and forward Josh Hill also playing in the lower grade.
The Dogs have also received good news on rugged forward Mitch Hahn, who has been cleared of serious injury after suffering being hospitalised with concussion.
Hahn, who suffered a knock to the face in his comeback from a hamstring injury with Williamstown last weekend, is likely to miss just one week.
Minson has missed the past four rounds with an ankle problem and Stack has not played since straining a hamstring in Round 15.
Adelaide's Patrick Dangerfield has been ruled out of Sunday's game with a broken hand.
Could of sworn I saw Minson running around for Willi the past 3 weeks
