MELBOURNE spearhead Jesse Hogan will on Tuesday receive the results of scans on the foot injury he suffered in Sunday's loss to Sydney.

Hogan was walking freely as he arrived at Demons headquarters on Monday morning, hopeful he had sustained only a "minor" tweak to his right foot.

Coming off for parts of the third quarter, the 23-year-old returned to play out the match, even providing a stepladder for Isaac Heeney's mark of the year contender in the final term.

"I got scans today and then I had to have another scan in the afternoon, the cameras caught me both times," Hogan told Channel 7's Talking Footy on Monday night.

"The medical staff will sit down tomorrow and we'll go through it, so I don't know too much [at the moment].

"It occurred on the weekend. I think every player in the comp is carrying some form of niggle at this time of year, no one's 100 per cent fit. This is something that appeared over the weekend."

Earlier on Monday, Hogan had told reporters he wasn't sure of the damage.

"It's feeling better today, so hopefully I maybe just tweaked it a little bit," Hogan said.

"Midway through the second quarter I started to notice it, probably sitting down at half-time and coming out of the half-time break, it came up pretty sore.

"I got through the game so hopefully it's nothing too serious."

Hogan said he would sit down with doctors later in the day to assess his chances of facing West Coast in Sunday's must-win encounter at Optus Stadium.

Ruckman Max Gawn was one of several players who arrived for recovery, admitting he had completed extra rehab overnight as he battles a lingering calf complaint.

Defender Jayden Hunt was also sent for scans after he re-injured the same right ankle he damaged while playing in the VFL in June.
