Banned footballer Stewart Crameri is in full training and ready to return to the injury-hit Western Bulldogs team for the finals, if an appeal to a Swiss court is successful in time.

The 27-year-old is one of 34 past and present Essendon players serving a season-long ban for their involvement in the club's 2012 supplements program.

The players were banned for the 2016 season by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in January, but the banned players launched an appeal while opting to let the suspension play out.

Twelve players remain at the Bombers and five, including Crameri, are at other clubs. Only the Western Bulldogs among those clubs will play in the finals.
