GEELONG coach Chris Scott chooses not to view Daniel Menzel as a down-on-your-luck story.
Instead he prefers to remember the young forward who booted five goals against Collingwood in the final round of 2011 and two goals the next week in a final against Hawthorn before his knee buckled under him
Menzel, 21, will return to the VFL on Sunday, following his third knee reconstruction, the latest a LARS procedure after he re-injured his knee late last year.
"He's had a long time to face his football mortality and the time's come now that he's absolutely ready to play," Scott said.
"I'm quite prepared to say this publicly, if at some point he hurts his knee again, we'll just go through the same process and he'll be back because the medical staff are telling us that there's no reason he can't be."
Scott says there would be no big expectations on Menzel this week and he would spend "a few weeks" in the VFL.
"He's an outstanding prospect and the information I get from the experts is that there's no reason he can't come back and be the player he was," Scott said.
"We're still confident he'll play pretty well."
