Off injury list
Payne is no longer seen on the Lions' injury list, according to Michael Whiting of AFL.com.
ANALYSIS
Payne wasn't seen in the Round 14 win over North Melbourne but did return over the weekend at the VFL level. He should now be on track to play for the senior team in the near future after only making three appearances this season.

Out with foot injury
Payne suffered a stress injury in his foot and is expected to miss six weeks, according to Michael Whiting of AFL.com.
ANALYSIS
Payne doesn't get enough time on the footy to have great value for fantasy, but he's still taken 15 marks through the first three rounds of the season. With Darcy Gardiner returning shortly, Payne's absence shouldn't be too detrimental for now.

Late call up Saturday
Payne was a late inclusion for the Lions on Saturday, replacing Darcy Gardiner who was ruled out with a knee injury.
ANALYSIS
Payne will play just the fifth game of his career as the Lions look to advance to their first Grand Final since 2004. Yet to establish himself as a regular part of the Lions rotation, this will undoubtedly be the biggest game of his life. Based on his season numbers, the Lions will simply be hoping he can hold his own against what can be a potent Geelong forward line.
