Melbourne star Christian Petracca feels he is a step closer to playing in Friday night's AFL semi-final against Brisbane after making it through Tuesday's training unscathed.
While the midfielder did not do any contact work, he is confident of proving his fitness for the sudden-death final at the MCG.
Petracca suffered a hairline fracture of his fibula as well as a corked calf in a collision with Lance Franklin during last week's qualifying final loss to Sydney.
