North Melbourne forward Ben Brown has had a small injury scare at training, suffering a knee injury last Thursday.

The club, however, insists it's just a minor blip and he will only miss a couple weeks of training.

According to the Kangaroos: The key forward presented with some swelling following an awkward landing during a drill last week and will undergo a ‘wash out procedure’.

Steve Saunders says that it's not a major concern.

“In terms of seriousness, specialists feel this is at the very low end of the spectrum," he said.

"The procedure should maximise Ben’s remaining preseason and outcomes for his knee long term."
