Bonnie Toogood, Brooke Brown and Emily Gough are all progressing well in their respective injuries, with the trio all only weeks away from a return.
First-year player Gough suffered a calf injury in week two and is on track for a week seven return.
Brown, who has yet to feature for the Bombers this year, has also made good progress in recovering from a calf injury.
The defender has been diligent with her rehab and is working towards being available for selection in three weeks.
The Bombers will face Melbourne on Friday at Windy Hill from 2:05pm, with their mid-week footy period to start next week.
