Strong in loss
Acres logged 27 disposals (15 kicks, 12 handballs) in addition to making six marks and completing five tackles during Wednesday's 56-29 loss to Richmond.
ANALYSIS
Acres has been in and out of the lineup over the past two months but was finally able to make a real impact in a match. Though his team wasn't able to secure the win in the end, Acres showed that the Dockers do have some real fight to them, even against top opponents. Though he doesn't have much time to prove he can do this consistently, Acres will have some good matchups to finish the season strong.

Makes bench against Saints
Acres has been named as an interchange to face Saint Kilda on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Acres has only played one time this season but it came in the Marsh Community Series back in February and not in AFL play, when he collected 31 disposals. He'll get his chance on the wing against Saints while he works his way into the full lineup.

Likely to play in scratch match
Acres (calf) will likely head for some run in a reserves match for Fremantle.
ANALYSIS
While senior coach Justin Longmuir indicated that Acres isn't quite ready for selection at this stage, he should be in a good spot to at least get some work under his belt this week after an extended layoff due to a hamstring and subsequent calf injury.

Test for Round 5
Acres (calf) could rejoin the action for Sunday's match versus Adelaide.
ANALYSIS
Acres has yet to make his Fremantle debut as he continues to work his way back from a calf strain, but the midfielder finally appears on the cusp of doing so. Over 19 games last season, Acres averaged 16.2 disposals, 3.8 tackles and 3.7 marks for St. Kilda.

Not available for Round 3
Fremantle high performance manager Jason Weber said that Acres (calf) won't be available Sunday for Fremantle's Round 3 match with Port Adelaide, Jordan McArdle of The West Australian reports. "He's got a small strain. He's up and running [Sunday] morning but he'll miss this week," Weber said of the midfielder. "We look forward to having him available next week."
ANALYSIS
Acres' Fremantle debut looks like it will have to wait until the Dockers' Round 4 match with Gold Coast on June 27 while he continues to work back from a minor right calf strain. The ex-St. Kilda midfielder has been sidelined since suffering the injury in the Dockers' final training session of last week prior to the team's Round 2 loss to Brisbane.

Ruled out after exit from training
Acres was spotted icing his right calf after training for a little more than 10 minutes Thursday, Joshua Daw of Nine News Perth reports. The issue will force him to sit out Saturday's game against Brisbane, according to Ryan Daniels of 7 News.
ANALYSIS
Acres was expected to make his season debut for the Dockers in Round 2 after recovering from previous calf injury, but he will have to wait at least another week following his latest setback. Look for more information to surface on his timetable once the doctors get a thorough look at the problem.
