AFL:Sydney ace set to return after bye for AFL pacesetters

Superstar midfielder Errol Gulden is among five Sydney mainstays set for comebacks from injury soon after the AFL club's bye.

The Swans sit second on the ladder, trailing Fremantle on percentage, after pipping Port Adelaide by three points on Saturday night.

Sydney have a bye next weekend with dual All Australian Gulden, who hasn't played since round two in mid-March because of a shoulder reconstruction, and Tom McCartin (concussion) set for returns.

Goalsneak Tom Papley (calf), Dane Rampe (calf) and Braeden Campbell (shin stress fractures) are also on the verge of comebacks.

"Errol will, at this stage, look to play post-bye which is really good," Swans coach Dean Cox said after the 14.9 (93) to 13.12 (90) away win against Port.
