Five-eighth Benji Marshall could well be back for the Wests Tigers in round four of the NRL Telstra Premiership.
Marshall suffered a cheekbone injury in the round one victory over St George-Illawarra at Telstra Stadium and was expected to be sidelined for up to six weeks.
"Benji has made a better than expected recovery and is a chance of playing the Melbourne Storm at Leichhardt Oval in round four,'' said Wests Tigers recruitment manager Warren McDonnell.
Meanwhile Marshall made his debut as a commentator for Channel Nine during last Friday's coverage of the Bulldogs and Wests Tigers game. Marshall said he enjoyed the experience of being a part of the call but found it tough sitting on the sidelines watching his team-mates do battle.
