Dealing with hip, calf issues
Lambert will miss Round 17 against Collingwood due to hip and calf injuries, according to Physical Performance manager Peter Burge. "He will miss this week and then we will make an assessment next week as to how he is progressing for a return to training and hopefully selection."
ANALYSIS
Lambert picked up a calf injury as a result of a different hip injury and it's caused him problems over the last week. He'll look to return without missing more than a game or two more.

Out for multiple weeks
Lambert is expected to miss at least two weeks with a calf injury, according to Physical Performance manager Peter Burge.
ANALYSIS
Lambert isn't always going to be one that leads his team in fantasy points, but his average in the 20's for disposals and solid mark totals mean he can certainly fill some nice gaps in a given lineup. He'll hope to return by mid-May at the earliest.
