Track report

Jenkins failed his fitness and will miss the Showdown with Port Adelaide on Saturday night. Crouch will return in the SANFL this weekend after injuring his hamstring for a third time in January. – Lee Gaskin

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Allen Christensen Shoulder 2-3 weeks Rhys Mathieson Ankle 2-4 weeks Sam Skinner* Knee 2 weeks Reuben William Shoulder 3-4 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

The Lions are in good shape after the weekend return of draftees Hugh McCluggage (ankle) and Alex Witherden (broken leg), along with Josh Schache (knee) and Marco Paparone (hamstring) through the NEAFL. Christensen is expected to start contact work this week and is hoping to be available by round five. – Michael Whiting

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Patrick Cripps Fractured jaw Test Daniel Gorringe Achilles 6 weeks Jed Lamb Knee 2 weeks Sam Rowe Concussion Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Patrick Cripps (fractured jaw) and Sam Rowe (concussion) trained on Thursday afternoon and will be given every opportunity to line up against Essendon on Sunday. There is good news for the Blues as ruckman Andrew Phillips and rookie small forward Kym Lebois will play in the VFL opening round match against Port Melbourne at North Port Oval on Saturday. Phillips missed the JLT Community Series after suffering a stress reaction in his left foot in January and is likely to play limited game-time against the Borough. Lebois played one pre-season game against Melbourne at Casey Fields and kicked a spectacular goal before succumbing to an ankle injury. – Howard Kotton

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Callum Brown Ankle Test Mason Cox Knee TBC Jordan De Goey Broken hand/suspended 4-5 weeks Jamie Elliott Ankle Test Levi Greenwood Hip Test Tom Langdon Knee and ankle 1-2 weeks Brayden Sier Hamstring tightness Test Ben Sinclair* Hamstring 6-8 weeks Daniel Wells Calf 1-2 weeks Rupert Wills Quad Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Elliott will play in the VFL this week, while Greenwood will take on the Swans after making a rapid recovery from hip surgery. De Goey will still be sidelined for an extended period with a broken knuckle and a club-imposed three-match suspension for initially lying about how he sustained the injury. Ex-Roo Wells is closing in on a long-awaited debut for the Pies and could be ready for round four. Wills and Brown have recovered and could be available to play in the VFL. Mason Cox copped a knock to the knee late in a VFL practice match but played out the game. – Ben Collins

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Josh Green Hamstring 1-2 weeks Ben Howlett Hamstring 2-3 weeks Jayden Laverde Ankle 12 weeks David Myers* Finger 3-5 weeks Jordan Ridley* Back 12 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Essendon has added midfielder Ben Howlett to its injury list, although the hamstring strain he suffered in his return game against the Brisbane Lions last week was relatively minor as by Tuesday he was back running laps at the club. That aside, the Bombers remain in a good position with the health of their list. Ruck pair Matthew Leuenberger (hamstring) and Tom Bellchambers (knee) are available after recovering from their injuries, giving the Bombers close to a full side to select from. – Callum Twomey

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Michael Apeness Knee 3-5 weeks Hayden Ballantyne Hamstring 6-8 weeks Harley Bennell Calf TBA Zac Clarke* Knee TBA Josh Deluca Groin 2-4 weeks Taylin Duman Ankle 1 week Ryan Nyhuis Shin 2-3 weeks Alex Pearce Leg TBA Matthew Uebergang Hamstring TBA Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Harley Bennell has had another setback with his troublesome calf. Hayden Ballantyne has progressed into strength work and is on target to return as scheduled following hamstring surgery. Luke Ryan pulled up well from his first game in about nine months following an ankle issue. – Travis King

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Ryan Abbott Back 2-3 weeks Nakia Cockatoo Hand 2-3 weeks Josh Cowan Managed 1 week Corey Gregson* Foot 8 weeks Cameron Guthrie Calf Test George Horlin-Smith Fractured thumb 1 week Timm House Shoulder Test Jake Kolodjashnij Groin Test Scott Selwood Toe Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Geelong has a bye in the VFL this week, which makes it likely Selwood and Kolodjashnij will be given an extra week before returning. House is yet to play a game in the blue and white hoops so the delay won’t hurt, while Guthrie has been selected to play against Melbourne. Zac Smith played well in the VFL last Saturday after being a late withdrawal from round one. – Peter Ryan

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Dan Currie Knee Test Sam Day Hip Season Mitch Hallahan Hamstring Test Tom Nicholls Shoulder Test Michael Rischitelli Knee Indefinite Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

One positive from the wreckage of Saturday’s loss to GWS was there were no new injuries. Hallahan and Currie are expected to be fine to play NEAFL this weekend, while Rischitelli’s rehabilitation from an ACL is still on track, completing some agility work on Tuesday. He is expected back sometime in May. – Michael Whiting

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Stephen Coniglio Ankle 4 weeks Matt de Boer Hamstring 1-2 weeks Brett Deledio Calf TBC Tom Downie* Illness Indefinite Tendai Mzungu Hamstring 10-12 weeks Jonathon Patton Hip Test Lachie Whitfield Suspended Round eight Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Patton, who has been battling a hip problem he picked up in round one, was named as an emergency for round three. Mzungu has commenced his long road back, but former Fremantle teammate Matt de Boer has been running strongly and should be back in the next fortnight. Coniglio could be fit to take on the Western Bulldogs in round six is his rehab goes well, while a return date for Deledio remains a mystery. – Adam Curley

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Grant Birchall Fractured jaw 4 weeks Jonathon Ceglar* Knee 12 weeks Kieran Lovell Shoulder Late season Jonathan O’Rourke Hamstring 1 week Liam Shiels Corked thigh Test Isaac Smith Corked thigh Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Birchall will miss a month with his jaw injury, but will be back running by the end of the week, while the club expects vice-captains Shiels and Smith to be available to play Gold Coast on Sunday despite their corkies against the Crows. Midfielder Jonathan O’Rourke is back doing ball work and will return at VFL level next week, however second-year midfielder Kieran Lovell has had surgery on an injured shoulder and won’t be back until later this year. The dreaded curse of the No.36 jumper at Hawthorn strikes again. – Ashley Browne

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Colin Garland* Knee Season Jesse Hogan Suspended Round five Jay Kennedy-Harris Arm Test Mitch King* Knee 3 weeks Michael Hibberd Achilles 1-2 weeks Liam Hulett Hip flexor 2 weeks Jordan Lewis Suspended Round six Pat McKenna Hamstring TBC Joel Smith Shoulder 3-4 months Aaron vandenBerg Heel 4-6 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Suspensions to Hogan and Lewis hurt immensely, but importantly for Melbourne it looks like getting a few players back from injury. Hibberd is tracking along nicely and could be ready to play next week, although he may need a game or two in the VFL for conditioning purposes. Hibberd played just one JLT Community Series game and missed the entire 2016 season due to a WADA-imposed suspension. Josh Wagner and Sam Frost played a half in the VFL at the weekend as they returned from a leg and toe injury respectively. – Ben Guthrie

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Paul Ahern* Knee Season Ben Jacobs Foot 3 weeks Oscar Junker Broken tibia 9-11 weeks Jy Simpkin Corked thigh 1 week Jarrad Waite Shoulder 3-5 weeks Mason Wood Knee 3 weeks Scott Thompson Suspension Round four Todd Goldstein Ankle Test Sam Wright Ankle 3 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Ben Brown (knee) and Majak Daw (ankle/knee) had scans on Monday, but are expected to play against Greater Western Sydney on Saturday. Todd Goldstein should also make the trip to Hobart after being a late withdrawal last round because of a training mishap. But Sam Wright failed to take his place in Werribee’s VFL practice match last Sunday and remains a week-to-week proposition. – Marc McGowan

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Jack Hombsch Knee 3-4 weeks Dougal Howard Knee Test Angus Monfries Hamstring 3 weeks Jasper Pittard Hamstring Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Key defender Jack Hombsch will miss up to a month after a medial ligament strain to his right knee against Fremantle last weekend. Pittard was named to play SANFL this week after missing the opening two games of the season. Hamish Hartlett regained his place in the side, while unlucky forward Angus Monfries will be sidelined for three weeks after injuring his hamstring at training last week. – Lee Gaskin

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Nathan Broad* Shoulder TBA Mabior Chol Concussion Test Shane Edwards Hip 3-6 weeks Jack Graham* Ankle Indefinite Ben Griffiths Concussion 1 week Shaun Hampson* Back Indefinite Dustin Martin Fractured cheekbone Test Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Dustin Martin will play with a minor undisplaced fracture to his right cheekbone, wearing a helmet if necessary. He trained on Thursday but avoided contact work earlier in the week. Chol was back in full training this week after suffering concussion in a VFL practice game. Edwards has joined the rehab group after injuring his hip late in last Thursday’s win against Collingwood. Hampson stepped up his training this week, joining the main group for the opening parts of Thursday’s session. Midfielder Dion Prestia has appeared to be managed but did more than he has in previous weeks in the lead-up to the West Coast clash. – Nathan Schmook

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

David Armitage Groin 1 week Nick Coughlan Foot 3 weeks Sean Dempster TBC TBC Hugh Goddard Achilles 1 week Ben Long Suspended Round three Nick Riewoldt Knee Test Jack Steven Punctured lung TBC Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Nick Riewoldt has been named to face the Brisbane Lions on Sunday, but David Armitage failed a fitness test on his injured groin. Jack Steven will miss at least a week after a punctured lung versus West Coast. – Dinny Navaratnam

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Isaac Heeney Glandular fever 2-3 weeks Alex Johnson* Knee Indefinite Jarrad McVeigh Calf 2 weeks Tom Papley* Knee/shin Test Dane Rampe Arm 7 weeks Dan Robinson Collarbone 5-8 weeks Gary Rohan* Back/hamstring 2 weeks Kurt Tippett Ankle 2 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Tippett won’t play Friday night and with a round four clash against West Coast on Thursday week, the Swans are hopeful he’ll be available, but the short turnaround might hurt him. Heeney and McVeigh are running well at training, but they’re looking at a round five comeback at the earliest. Rampe has his left arm in a sling for at least the next two weeks before he can start mobility and strength work, and looks set to miss almost two months of footy, while Papley and Rohan are back to full training and should be available to play at some level in the next 2-3 weeks. – Adam Curley

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Matthew Allen Hamstring 1 week Tom Cole Quad 1 week Scott Lycett* Shoulder 8-10 weeks Nic Naitanui* Knee Late 2017 season Drew Petrie Hand 10 weeks Willie Rioli Hamstring 6-8 weeks Simon Tunbridge Knee Mid-late 2017 season Jake Waterman Foot 8 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Eric Mackenzie was still on light duties at Monday training after being rested for round two due to knee and toe soreness, but he and Lewis Jetta – who played for East Perth after a glute scare – will be available this week. Scott Lycett is due to resume running shortly after undergoing surgery on his dislocated shoulder. The ruckman is about two months away for returning, as is goalsneak Willie Rioli, whose recovery timeframe has been pushed out slightly to six-to-eight weeks after hamstring tendon surgery. – Travis King

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Kieran Collins Knee 1 week Stewart Crameri Hip TBC Tim English Shin soreness 1 week Tory Dickson Abdominal 2-3 weeks Dale Morris Leg 6-8 weeks Josh Prudden Knee Available Jack Redpath Knee TBC Jordan Roughead Hamstring 4-5 weeks Roarke Smith Knee Season Mitch Wallis Broken leg 2-3 weeks Updated: Thursday, April 6

Track report

Stewart Crameri will miss the trip to Perth with a hip complaint. Tory Dickson and Mitch Wallis are at least a month away as they’ll both need a few games in the VFL to gain match fitness. Jordan Roughead’s return from a serious hamstring complaint has been slow and steady. First-year ruckman Tim English and key defender Kieran Collins are both expected to play in Footscray’s VFL season opener on April 14. – Ryan Davidson

Early prognosis

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

Patrick Cripps Fractured jaw Test Daniel Gorringe Achilles 6 weeks Jed Lamb Knee 2 weeks Sam Rowe Concussion Test Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Carlton remains hopeful Cripps can face the Bombers despite suffering a hairline fracture to his jaw in the clash with Jordan Lewis last Sunday. Cripps will be tested this week, as will key defender Sam Rowe, who was concussed after a strike from Jesse Hogan. Jed Lamb had scans on his knee last week and will miss two weeks. Daniel Gorringe injured his Achilles in the JLT Community Series and has not progressed as well as the Blues had hoped. After being sent to the AIS in Canberra for further assessment, he will be on the sidelines for another six weeks. – Howard Kotton

Player

Early prognosis

Elliott hopes to be passed fit for the Pies’ clash with Sydney at the SCG on Friday night, while Greenwood could also be available after making a rapid recovery from hip surgery. De Goey will still be sidelined for an extended period with a broken knuckle and a club-imposed three-match suspension for initially lying about how he sustained the injury. Ex-Roo Wells is closing in on a long-awaited debut for the Pies and could be ready for round four. Wills and Brown have recovered and could be available to play in the VFL. Mason Cox copped a knock to the knee late in a VFL practice match but played out the game. – Ben Collins

Early prognosis

Harley Bennell is expected to finally be back training with the main group this week after his long-running calf issues, which needed more treatment last week. Hayden Ballantyne has progressed into strength work and is on target to return as scheduled following hamstring surgery. Luke Ryan pulled up well from his first game in about nine months following an ankle issue. – Travis King

Injury

Estimated Return

Ryan Abbott Back 2-3 weeks Nakia Cockatoo Hand 2-3 weeks Corey Gregson* Foot 8 weeks Cameron Guthrie Calf Test Timm House Shoulder Test Jake Kolodjashnij Groin Test Scott Selwood Toe Test Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Geelong has a bye in the VFL this week, which makes it likely Selwood and Kolodjashnij will be given an extra week before returning. House is yet to play a game in the blue and white hoops so the delay won’t hurt, while Guthrie is a chance to play against Melbourne. Zac Smith played well in the VFL last Saturday after being a late withdrawal from round one. – Peter Ryan

Early prognosis

Patton will have to get through training later this week to prove his fitness after being a late withdrawal last week, with the key forward battling a hip problem he picked up in round one. Mzungu has commenced his long road back, but former Fremantle teammate Matt de Boer has been running strongly and should be back in the next fortnight. Coniglio could be fit to take on the Western Bulldogs in round six is his rehab goes well, while a return date for Deledio remains a mystery. – Adam Curley

Early prognosis

Third in the Power’s best and fairest last year, Pittard could return for Saturday’s Showdown with Adelaide after missing the opening two games of the season. Hartlett is expected to regain his place in the side, while unlucky forward Angus Monfries will be sidelined for three weeks after injuring his hamstring at training last week. – Lee Gaskin

Injury

Estimated Return

Shai Bolton Suspended Round five Mabior Chol Concussion Test Shane Edwards Hip 3-6 weeks Jack Graham* Ankle Indefinite Ben Griffiths Concussion TBC Shaun Hampson* Back Indefinite Dustin Martin Fractured cheekbone Test Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Dustin Martin is likely to play with a minor undisplaced fracture to his right cheekbone, wearing a helmet if necessary. He trained on Tuesday but avoided contact work. Chol is also likely to play after completing a full session on Tuesday five days after suffering concussion in a VFL practice game. Edwards has joined the rehab group after injuring his hip late in last Thursday’s win against Collingwood. Hampson is doing very little on the track at this stage with a chronic back injury. – Nathan Schmook

Player

Injury

Estimated Return

David Armitage Groin Test Nick Coughlan Foot 3 weeks Sean Dempster TBC TBC Hugh Goddard Achilles 1 week Ben Long Suspended Round three Nick Riewoldt Knee Test Jack Steven Punctured lung TBC Updated: Tuesday, April 4

Early prognosis

Nick Riewoldt is unlikely to face the Brisbane Lions on Sunday but if he responds well to an increased training load, a return isn’t out of the question. However, he could be on the sidelines for a few more weeks yet. Jack Steven will miss at least a week after a punctured lung versus West Coast and David Armitage’s groin will be tested. – Dinny Navaratnam

Early prognosis

The Dogs escaped the thrilling win over Sydney unscathed, but they won’t be welcoming back any injured stars in the near future. Tory Dickson and Mitch Wallis are at least a month away as they’ll both need a few games in the VFL to gain match fitness. Jordan Roughead’s return from a serious hamstring complaint has been slow and steady. First-year ruckman Tim English and key defender Kieran Collins are both expected to play in Footscray’s VFL season opener on April 14. – Ryan Davidson

Season preview: Collingwood

Darcy Moore has a huge job leading the Magpies’ attack this season

2017 season previews

Ahead of round one, what are your club’s big unanswered questions?

For the Magpies’ season preview, read on below. Or, you can click here to read more 2017 season previews, with each club’s pass mark, coach pressure ratings, your predictions and more.

Teams 9-18 are published today in predicted ladder order. Season previews for our predicted finalists will be published on Sunday, March 19.

Collingwood

Best 22 – round one

B: Lynden Dunn, Ben Reid, Brayden Maynard HB: Josh Smith, Jeremy Howe, Jackson Ramsay C: Steele Sidebottom, Taylor Adams, Daniel Wells HF: Chris Mayne, Darcy Moore, Alex Fasolo F: Jamie Elliott, Mason Cox, Jordan De Goey Foll: Brodie Grundy, Scott Pendlebury, Adam Treloar I/C: Travis Varcoe, Levi Greenwood, Tom Phillips, Jack Crisp

Injury list

Daniel Wells has battled calf soreness for more than a month after returning to pre-season in less than ideal shape. Likely to miss round one but when fit he’s a silky addition. Jamie Elliott suffered an ankle injury soon after playing the first JLT Community Series game and is touch and go for round one while Scott Pendlebury was rested due to Achilles soreness but will play the season opener. Jordan De Goey has been in the wars with a thigh problem following a toe injury, while Matt Scharenberg will be given time as he returns from an ACL operation.

The big questions

Can the backline hold up?

The Magpies expect to improve with the changes they made during the off-season, backing system versus individual reputation. Ben Reid is a star while Lynden Dunn can lock down on an opponent and is also a booming kick. A range of mid-sized defenders can take up the slack, taking aggressive positions to rebound.

Does too much fall on Darcy Moore’s shoulders?

Lachie Keeffe, Mason Cox and Jesse White are the other keys capable of playing forward but Moore does carry massive responsibility for a 21-year-old with just 26 games’ experience. He is capable of handling it, particularly if Jamie Elliott and Alex Fasolo stay fit.

How good is Collingwood’s midfield?

Rated No.1 by Champion Data it has yet to prove it can consistently match it with the best within games and week after week. Scott Pendlebury, Adam Treloar, Steele Sidebottom and Taylor Adams are in the top tier but the rest remain as depth players. James Aish, Levi Greenwood, Jordan De Goey and Brodie Grundy are yet to regularly beat the best while Daniel Wells’ reliability is questionable. Tom Phillips has had an excellent pre-season.

Look for …

Darcy Moore to become a star of the competition. Injury free and with reasonable delivery, the 22-year-old can become one of the most talked about players in the competition. Brave, possessing a huge leap and an accurate kick, supporters saw a glimpse of his talent against West Coast last season before injury struck.

Who they play

A tough start to the season, with defending premiers the Western Bulldogs followed by Richmond, Sydney and St Kilda. The Magpies must win two of the first four, while three will set them up. Their draw is relatively good with two games against Geelong, Hawthorn, Essendon, Melbourne and Port Adelaide. The Magpies should be in contention for a long time.

Fantasy cash cow

Matt Scharenberg ($234,000) may not play in round one but expect him to play regular senior football in 2017 as he returns from his second knee reconstruction. He will begin to win the ball and should appear as a bargain basement selection by year’s end.

Sudden impact

Chris Mayne will be straight into the team after arriving as a free agent from Fremantle, while the wait for Daniel Wells to appear is likely to be longer. Will Hoskin-Elliott shapes as a handy wingman/forward who could become a fan favourite as he has the capacity to do the spectacular. Josh Daicos had a nice cameo in the JLT Community Series but will have to bide his time while Callum Brown is back now after a bout of glandular fever.

It’s crunch time for …

Nathan Buckley has declared it’s finals or bust when it comes to his time at Collingwood. Entering his sixth season as coach after three consecutive years outside the finals, he has a talented list capable of being in the mix. Whether Buckley can make them jell will be known this season.

Pressure rating on the coach

Volcanic, to coin a phrase the Pies CEO made part of the football lexicon. Nobody at Collingwood is under any illusion that Buckley’s position will come under scrutiny if the win-loss column isn’t in his favour at season’s end.

The Magpies will have a good year if …

They can get close to their best 22 on the park every week of the season.

They’re in trouble if …

Ben Reid or Darcy Moore go down early.

Pass mark

11 wins. List should be ranked between seventh and tenth, so finals or just outside would be about par.

AFL.com.au predicted ladder finish

10th.

Player Ratings star

Scott Pendlebury, No.4. Played under duress at the start of the year but won Collingwood’s best and fairest for the third year in a row.

Who plays in round one?

IT’S RARE, if not completely impossible, for a club to have its unchallenged best 22 available at any time.

With round one approaching, AFL.com.au reporters have had a stab at picking their best 22 for the season opener for every club, leaving out those players who are injured, suspended or will miss due to poor form.

ADELAIDE v Greater Western Sydney, Adelaide Oval, Sunday, March 26, 2.50pm ACDT

B: Luke Brown, Kyle Hartigan, Jake Lever HB: Brodie Smith, Daniel Talia, Rory Laird C: Rory Atkins, Matt Crouch, David Mackay HF: Tom Lynch, Taylor Walker, Charlie Cameron F: Eddie Betts, Josh Jenkins, Mitch McGovern Foll: Sam Jacobs, Rory Sloane, Richard Douglas I/C: Andy Otten, Curtly Hampton, Wayne Milera, Harrison Wigg

New faces: Curtly Hampton, Harrison Wigg

Missing with injury/suspension: Brad Crouch (hamstring, 1 week), Riley Knight (Achilles, 1 week), Paul Seedsman (groin, 1 week), Scott Thompson (shoulder, 1 week).

Notes: If anyone can hit the ground running from a fractured eye socket without playing a pre-season game, it’s Rory Sloane. Of course, if there is any doubt over his injury, the Crows will err on the side of caution and give him another week. If that’s the case, the Crows’ midfield depth will be severely tested against the best engine room in the competition. The Crows would be unlikely to throw Brad Crouch, Scott Thompson or Paul Seedsman into the fray after lengthy lay-offs. Andy Otten’s pre-season form is too good to ignore and he gets the nod ahead of Kyle Cheney for his first game in three years. Curtly Hampton and Wayne Milera have the pace the Crows’ midfield need. In the toughest decision, Harrison Wigg gets the nod over former basketballer Hugh Greenwood and first-year player Jordan Gallucci for the last spot on the bench. – Lee Gaskin

Gold Coast v BRISBANE LIONS, Metricon Stadium, Saturday, March 25, 7.05pm AEST

B: Darcy Gardiner, Harris Andrews, Ryan Harwood HB: Daniel Rich, Dan McStay, Sam Mayes C: Rohan Bewick, Dayne Zorko, Ryan Lester HF: Mitch Robinson, Eric Hipwood, Lewis Taylor F: Jake Barrett, Michael Close, Ben Keays Foll: Stefan Martin, Tom Rockliff, Dayne Beams I/C: Tom Cutler, Ryan Bastinac, Tom Bell, Nick Robertson

New faces: Jake Barrett

Missing with injury/suspension: Allen Christensen (collarbone, 6-8 weeks), Jack Frost (suspended, 1 week), Hugh McCluggage (ankle, 1-2 weeks), Josh Schache (knee, 1-2 weeks).

Notes: Still a lot to learn for coach Chris Fagan about his young Lions team. With Frost suspended for the opening round, the second key defender – likely to mark ‘Two Metre’ Peter Wright – is a bit of a headache. It comes down to McStay, who hasn’t played much footy, Josh Walker or possibly upgrading Matthew Hammelmann. I’ve gone for McStay as a one-game solution, although expect him to play forward more often this season. Schache and McCluggage are both 50-50 to play round one, but being so young, let’s assume the Lions err on the side of caution and leave them out. Barrett will be elevated off the rookie list and earn his position. Rhys Mathieson and Claye Beams are very unlucky. – Michael Whiting

How are your club’s new faces performing?

CARLTON v Richmond, MCG, Thursday, March 23, 7.20pm AEST

B: Kade Simpson, Sam Rowe, Simon White HB: Sam Docherty, Caleb Marchbank, Dale Thomas C: Billie Smedts, Bryce Gibbs, Ed Curnow HF: Matthew Wright, Jacob Weitering, Dennis Armfield F: Rhys Palmer, Levi Casboult, Jarrod Pickett Foll: Matthew Kreuzer, Patrick Cripps, Marc Murphy I/C: Charlie Curnow, Sam Kerridge, Lachie Plowman, Jack Silvagni

New faces: Caleb Marchbank, Rhys Palmer, Jarrod Pickett, Billie Smedts

Missing with injury/suspension: Ciaran Byrne (knee, indefinite), Sam Petrevski-Seton (quad, 2 weeks), Andrew Phillips (stress reaction in foot, indefinite)

Notes: Pickett will make his AFL debut after an impressive performance in the Blues’ final JLT Community Series match against Fremantle. Smedts will provide much-needed run and Palmer is smart around goal and can go through the midfield. There will be a temptation to play Weitering on Jack Riewoldt but he is far more important to the Blues’ capabilities of kicking a winning score. Marchbank is versatile and can shore up the defence with Weitering required in attack. – Howard Kotton

Rhys Palmer is likely to make his debut for his third club in round one. Picture: AFL Media

COLLINGWOOD v Western Bulldogs, MCG, Friday, March 24, 7.50pm AEDT

B: Tyson Goldsack, Lynden Dunn, Jackson Ramsay HB: Jeremy Howe, Ben Reid, Brayden Maynard C: Steele Sidebottom, Adam Treloar, Jack Crisp HF: Travis Varcoe, Jesse White, Will Hoskin-Elliott F: Chris Mayne, Darcy Moore, Alex Fasolo Foll: Brodie Grundy, Scott Pendlebury, Taylor Adams I/C: Mason Cox, Jarryd Blair, Tom Phillips, Josh Smith

New faces: Lynden Dunn, Will Hoskin-Elliott, Chris Mayne

Missing with injury/suspension: Jamie Elliott (ankle, TBC), Levi Greenwood (hamstring, TBC), Ben Sinclair (hamstring, 8-12 weeks), Daniel Wells (calf, 2-4 weeks)

Notes: Several spots are up in the air because of fitness issues, so on the basis of limited match conditioning I left out Jamie Elliott and Jordan De Goey, both of whom missed the final two JLT Community Series games, and I wasn’t prepared to take a risk on the hamstring of Levi Greenwood, whose position in the team was probably already under threat. Rookie full-back Henry Schade, from Gold Coast, was unlucky to miss out but ex-Melbourne veteran Lynden Dunn gets the nod for his superior body strength and experience to play on Bulldogs big men such as Travis Cloke and Tom Boyd. Young midfielder James Aish was perhaps also a little stiff. – Ben Collins

ESSENDON v Hawthorn, MCG, Saturday, March 25, 7.25pm AEDT

B: Mark Baguley, Michael Hurley, Brent Stanton HB: James Kelly, Patrick Ambrose, Martin Gleeson C: Darcy Parish, Jobe Watson, Brendon Goddard HF: Travis Colyer, Cale Hooker, James Stewart F: Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti, Joe Daniher, Orazio Fantasia R: Shaun McKernan, Zach Merrett, Dyson Heppell I/C: David Zaharakis, Jayden Laverde, Andrew McGrath, Kyle Langford

New faces: James Stewart, Andrew McGrath

Missing with injury/suspension: Tom Bellchambers (knee, 2 weeks), Aaron Francis (ankle, 1-2 weeks), Josh Green (foot, 1 week), Matthew Leuenberger (hamstring, 3-4 weeks), David Myers (finger, 6 weeks), Jordan Ridley (back, 12 weeks),

Notes: I’ve picked six of the senior-listed Bomber players returning from WADA suspensions, with Heath Hocking, Ben Howlett and David Myers (injured) missing out. Should he get through this Friday night’s VFL practice match against Geelong, Cale Hooker, returning from a hamstring injury, should do enough to confirm his selection. The ruck is an area of concern, with Bellchambers and Leuenberger both injured, so Shaun McKernan comes in as the replacement with Joe Daniher and James Stewart to provide back-up. This is a team that has the speed and experience to take it up to Hawthorn in round one. – Ben Guthrie

FREMANTLE v Geelong, Domain Stadium, Sunday, March 26, 4.40pm AWST

B: Lee Spurr, Joel Hamling, Zac Dawson HB: Cam Sutcliffe, Michael Johnson, Lachie Weller C: Stephen Hill, David Mundy, Bradley Hill HF: Ed Langdon, Shane Kersten, Danyle Pearce F: Michael Walters, Cam McCarthy, Jonathon Griffin Foll: Aaron Sandilands, Nat Fyfe, Lachie Neale I/C: Connor Blakely, Garrick Ibbotson, Darcy Tucker, Hayden Crozier

New faces: Joel Hamling, Bradley Hill, Shane Kersten, Cam McCarthy

Missing with injury/suspension: Michael Apeness (knee, 6-8 weeks), Hayden Ballantyne (hamstring, 8-10 weeks), Harley Bennell (calf, 6-8 weeks), Zac Clarke (knee, indefinite), Alex Pearce (leg, indefinite)

Notes: Losing Hayden Ballantyne for two months in the final JLT Community Series hit-out was a major blow and compounds Shane Yarran’s retirement in December. Ballantyne’s hamstring injury could open the door for Tommy Sheridan and Nick Suban if Ross Lyon reshuffles his line-up, but Hayden Crozier seems a more like-for-like replacement with his proven ability to play as a small forward as well as half-back. Draftee ruckman Sean Darcy appeared in all three pre-season matches, however Jonathon Griffin takes the back-up spot to Aaron Sandilands following an impressive JLT series. Ethan Hughes, draftee Brennan Cox and Sam Collins could all be pushing to break into the side early in the campaign, while top-10 pick Griffin Logue might need more time developing in the WAFL. Key forward Matt Taberner might start at Peel but will be aiming to put pressure on the likes of Geelong recruit Shane Kersten for a spot in attack. – Travis King

Fremantle v GEELONG, Domain Stadium, Sunday, March 26, 4.40pm AWST

B: Andrew Mackie, Tom Lonergan, Tom Stewart HB: Zach Tuohy, Lachie Henderson, Jackson Thurlow C: Mark Blicavs, Cam Guthrie, Mitch Duncan HF: Daniel Menzel, Harry Taylor, Lincoln McCarthy F: Steven Motlop, Tom Hawkins, Nakia Cockatoo Foll: Rhys Stanley, Patrick Dangerfield, Joel Selwood I/C: Zac Smith, Josh Cowan, Sam Menegola, Tom Ruggles

New faces: Brandan Parfitt, Tom Stewart, Zach Tuohy

Missing: Cory Gregson (foot, indefinite), Scott Selwood (toe, 1 week), Jake Kolodjashnij (groin, 1 week)

Notes: The Cats look likely to head west with a strong squad, with Cam Guthrie expected to be available after missing much of the JLT Community Series with a calf problem. Look for Zach Tuohy to play after slotting into a half-back role in three pre-season games while Tom Stewart is poised to make his debut, despite being rested from the final quarter of the Essendon win with hamstring tightness. Draftee Brandan Parfitt is in the frame after a promising pre-season, while rookie Zach Guthrie could be promoted after an encouraging two hit-outs, but his chances may be hurt after being left out of the final game against the Bombers. Jordan Murdoch, Darcy Lang and George Horlin-Smith are unlucky to miss out, given that Zac Smith likely plays against the Fremantle big men and Tom Ruggles is the logical match up for Michael Walters. – Jennifer Phelan

Brandan Parfitt is set for selection after a promising pre-season. Picture: AFL Photos

GOLD COAST v Brisbane Lions, Metricon Stadium, Saturday, March 25, 7.05pm AEST

B: Kade Kolodjashnij, Steven May, Sean Lemmens HB: Jack Bowes, Rory Thompson, Adam Saad C: Alex Sexton, Touk Miller, Pearce Hanley HF: Michael Barlow, Tom Lynch, Jack Martin F: Ben Ainsworth, Peter Wright, Callum Ah Chee Foll: Jarrod Witts, Gary Ablett, Aaron Hall I/C: Jarryd Lyons, David Swallow, Matt Rosa, Jesse Joyce

New faces: Ben Ainsworth, Michael Barlow, Jack Bowes, Pearce Hanley, Jarryd Lyons, Jarrod Witts

Missing with injury/suspension: Sam Day (hip, season), Jarrod Harbrow (ankle, NEAFL), Michael Rischitelli (ACL, 6-8 weeks).

Notes: Not a lot of places that need explaining in a relatively settled Suns lineup. Bowes and Ainsworth have done enough to earn their debuts, while the four mature midfielders – Hanley, Lyons, Barlow and Witts – are also certainties. The most difficult decision was the back pocket, but the disciplined nature of Lemmens’ lockdown defence should be enough to get him the start. Harbrow will force his way back into the 22 after a couple of practice matches to overcome his ankle surgery, while Brayden Fiorini and Will Brodie are knocking on the door. – Michael Whiting

Adelaide v GREATER WESTERN SYDNEY, Adelaide Oval, Sunday, March 26, 2.50pm ACDT

B: Heath Shaw, Phil Davis, Nick Haynes HB: Matt Buntine, Adam Tomlinson, Zac Williams C: Josh Kelly, Callan Ward, Tom Scully HF: Steve Johnson, Jeremy Cameron, Toby Greene F: Devon Smith, Jon Patton, Rory Lobb Foll: Shane Mumford, Dylan Shiel, Ryan Griffen I/C: Nathan Wilson, Tim Taranto, Matthew Kennedy, Adam Kennedy

New faces: Tim Taranto

Missing with injury/suspension: Stephen Coniglio (ankle, 6 weeks), Aidan Corr (hand, TBC), Brett Deledio (calf, TBC), Matt de Boer (hamstring, 2-3 weeks), Lachie Whitfield (suspended, TBC)

Notes: Griffen gets his chance to start on the ball to offset the loss of Coniglio’s hardness, while Jacob Hopper misses out after only playing half a game in the reserves in the pre-season. Buntine’s ability to play tall gets him a spot to strengthen the back half against a powerful Crows outfit, with Corr’s availability still up in the air, so Haynes to be used as the third tall. – Adam Curley

Essendon v HAWTHORN, MCG, Saturday, March 25, 7.25pm AEDT

B: Taylor Duryea, James Frawley, Josh Gibson HB: Shaun Burgoyne, Ben Stratton, Grant Birchall C: Isaac Smith, Tom Mitchell, Jack Gunston HF: Cyril Rioli, Jarryd Roughead, James Sicily F: Paul Puopolo, Tyrone Vickery, Luke Breust Foll: Ben McEvoy, Liam Shiels, Jaeger O’Meara I/C: Will Langford, Ricky Henderson, Kade Stewart, Billy Hartung

New faces: Ricky Henderson, Tom Mitchell, Jaeger O’Meara, Tyrone Vickery

Missing with injury/suspension: Jon Ceglar (ACL, late season) Luke Hodge (club suspension, 1 week)

Notes: Billy Hartung did just enough against Port Adelaide in the final JLT game to squeeze into the side at the expense of Ryan Schoenmakers. Luke Hodge would naturally play here if not for the club suspension. It is a different looking side with four new players from other clubs, while young midfielder Kade Stewart gets rewarded for an excellent summer with a round one berth. – Ashley Browne

St Kilda v MELBOURNE, Etihad Stadium, Saturday, March 25, 4.35pm AEDT

B: Neville Jetta, Tom McDonald, Michael Hibberd HB: Jayden Hunt, Oscar McDonald, Jordan Lewis C: Dom Tyson, Nathan Jones, Christian Salem HF: Christian Petracca, Jack Watts, Dean Kent F: Angus Brayshaw, Jesse Hogan, Jeff Garlett Foll: Max Gawn, Clayton Oliver, Jack Viney I/C: Jake Melksham, Jake Spencer, Bernie Vince, Billy Stretch

New faces: Michael Hibberd, Jordan Lewis, Jake Melksham

Missing with injury/suspension: Sam Frost (toe, 2-3 weeks), Aaron vandenBerg (foot, 4-6 weeks), Josh Wagner (2 weeks), Mitch King (knee, TBC)

Notes: I had some difficulties picking this team and there are a number of players unlucky not to be selected. Hibberd (Achilles), Jetta (quad) and Kent (back) are all under injury clouds leading into round one, but I have picked them based on what they will add to the team if they are declared fully fit. Rookie defender Joel Smith is also under consideration, particularly with St Kilda’s tall forward line, but given he missed the final JLT Series game it was hard to give him the nod. I’ve also left out Sam Weideman, who I think will play a lot of senior football this season, but I believe the Demons will opt to go with Max Gawn and Jake Spencer as the ruck/forward combination against the Saints. Jack Watts also holds onto his spot, despite a sub-par pre-season. – Ben Guthrie

Jordan Lewis and Jake Melksham are likely to play in round one for the Demons. Picture: AFL Photos

NORTH MELBOURNE v West Coast, Etihad Stadium, Sunday, March 26, 1.10pm AEDT

B: Marley Williams, Scott Thompson, Sam Wright HB: Luke McDonald, Robbie Tarrant, Sam Durdin C: Shaun Atley, Jack Ziebell, Jamie Macmillan HF: Nathan Hrovat, Ben Brown, Shaun Higgins F: Lindsay Thomas, Jarrad Waite, Majak Daw Foll: Todd Goldstein, Trent Dumont, Andrew Swallow I/C: Ryan Clarke, Declan Mountford, Kayne Turner, Jy Simpkin

New faces: Sam Durdin, Nathan Hrovat, Declan Mountford, Jy Simpkin, Marley Williams

Missing with injury/suspension: Jed Anderson (shoulder, test), Ben Cunnington (suspension, 1 week), Taylor Garner (hip, test), Ben Jacobs (foot, 4-6 weeks), Oscar Junker (broken tibia, 12-14 weeks), Mason Wood (hamstring, 4-6 weeks), Paul Ahern (ACL, season)

Notes: Ben Brown is an automatic inclusion if he can prove his fitness in a VFL practice match on Saturday. Braydon Preuss is unlucky to miss after an impressive JLT Community Series, but we’ve given Majak Daw the nod as support ruckman given he’s more likely to have an impact in attack. North preferred a two-talls backline for much of 2016 but given the Eagles’ tall forward line we’ve included Sam Durdin as a third key backman, the 20-year-old edging out veteran Lachlan Hansen and medium defender Ed Vickers-Willis. We also opted for youth over experience in the midfield, overlooking Sam Gibson in favour of second-year tagger Declan Mountford. – Nick Bowen

PORT ADELAIDE v Sydney, SCG, Saturday, March 25, 4.35pm AEDT

B: Tom Jonas, Tom Clurey, Darcy Byrne-Jones HB: Hamish Hartlett, Jack Hombsch, Matthew Broadbent C: Brad Ebert, Travis Boak, Jared Polec HF: Chad Wingard, Brett Eddy, Justin Westhoff F: Aaron Young, Charlie Dixon, Sam Gray Foll: Patrick Ryder, Ollie Wines, Robbie Gray I/C: Jackson Trengove, Sam Powell-Pepper, Karl Amon, Riley Bonner

New faces: Brett Eddy, Sam Powell-Pepper

Missing with injury/suspension: Jasper Pittard (hamstring, 1 week), Jarman Impey (suspension, 1 week), Nathan Krakouer (suspension, 1 week), Aidyn Johnson (suspension, 1 week).

Notes: Midfield bull Sam Powell-Pepper – the No. 18 overall pick at the 2016 NAB AFL Draft – and mature-aged rookie Brett Eddy have forced their way into the Power’s best 22. Defender Riley Bonner deserves his chance after great form in the pre-season competition. Wingard will revert to his traditional role in the forward line with Jarman Impey and Nathan Krakouer suspended, and Angus Monfries and Matthew White making their way back to full fitness. – Lee Gaskin

Carlton v RICHMOND, MCG, Thursday, March 23, 7:20pm AEDT

B: Dylan Grimes, David Astbury, Reece Conca HB: Bachar Houli, Alex Rance, Brandon Ellis C: Shane Edwards, Dustin Martin, Shaun Grigg HF: Josh Caddy, Ben Griffiths, Nick Vlastuin F: Daniel Rioli, Jack Riewoldt, Sam Lloyd Foll: Toby Nankervis, Trent Cotchin, Dion Prestia I/C: Anthony Miles, Kamdyn McIntosh, Jason Castagna, Dan Butler

New faces: Dan Butler, Josh Caddy, Toby Nankervis, Dion Prestia

Missing with injury/suspension: Shaun Hampson (back, indefinite); Steve Morris (knee, 1-2 weeks); Jack Graham (hamstring, 1-2 weeks)

Notes: Brandon Ellis has been backed to move into defence and will likely get first crack as a rebounder in round one. His form needs to improve, however, with Kamdyn McIntosh (named on the bench) and Oleg Markov other options here. Reece Conca has also returned as a small defender, forcing Jayden Short out of the team. Speed and defensive pressure should ensure Jason Castagna and Dan Butler get their chance in a smaller forward line. Nick Vlastuin is also selected as a midfielder/forward having trained and played there all pre-season. Connor Menadue, Corey Ellis and Markov are part of the future, but a lack of minutes and influence in the JLT Community Series means they’re likely to be overlooked against the Blues. Mabior Chol is waiting in the wings if Ben Griffiths doesn’t hit form soon, or the Tigers decide they need more forward line height and ruck support. – Nathan Schmook

ST KILDA v Melbourne, Etihad Stadium, Saturday, March 25, 4.35pm AEDT

B: Dylan Roberton, Nathan Brown, Jarryn Geary HB: Leigh Montagna, Jake Carlisle, Sean Dempster C: Jack Newnes, David Armitage, Nick Riewoldt HF: Tim Membrey, Josh Bruce, Jack Billings F: Jade Gresham, Paddy McCartin, Mav Weller Foll: Tom Hickey, Seb Ross, Jack Steven

I/C: Luke Dunstan, Jack Steele, Sam Gilbert, Shane Savage

New faces: Nathan Brown, Jake Carlisle, Jack Steele

Missing with injury/suspension: Hugh Goddard (Achilles tendon, mid-season), Bailey Rice (finger, 4 weeks)

Notes: A right calf strain meant Leigh Montagna did not play in the JLT Community Series, so the veteran will be touch and go for round one, but if fit, should be picked based on his experience and consistency. Blake Acres improved last season but he needs to improve his kicking and decision-making before returning to the 22. – Dinny Navaratnam

Jake Carlisle will likely make his long-awaited St Kilda debut against Melbourne. Picture: AFL Photos

SYDNEY v Port Adelaide, SCG, Saturday, March 25, 4.35pm AEDT

B: Nick Smith, Heath Grundy, Dane Rampe HB: Callum Mills, Aliir Aliir, Jake Lloyd C: Dan Robinson, Josh Kennedy, Dan Hannebery HF: George Hewett, Sam Reid, Dean Towers F: Kurt Tippett, Lance Franklin, Kieren Jack Foll: Sam Naismith, Luke Parker, Zak Jones I/C: Jeremy Laidler, Darcy Cameron, Harrison Marsh, Oliver Florent

New faces: Darcy Cameron, Oliver Florent

Missing with injury/suspension: Isaac Heeney (glandular fever, TBC), Jarrad McVeigh (calf, 3-4 weeks), Tom Papley (knee, 1 week), Gary Rohan (back, 1 week)

Notes: Cameron’s inclusion allows the Swans to use Tippett primarily as a deep forward to stretch Port in defence, while Florent has shown his speed can have a huge impact inside 50. Robinson takes Heeney’s spot in the 18 because he finds plenty of footy and uses it well, and Laidler wins a spot ahead of rookie Lewis Melican and draftee Jack Maibaum purely on experience. Lloyd and Jones are interchangeable and Marsh is extremely versatile, so is very handy off the bench. – Adam Curley

North Melbourne v WEST COAST, Etihad Stadium, Sunday, March 26, 1.10pm AEST

B: Jackson Nelson, Eric Mackenzie, Brad Sheppard HB: Shannon Hurn, Jeremy McGovern, Sharrod Wellingham C: Andrew Gaff, Matt Priddis, Lewis Jetta HF: Jamie Cripps, Jack Darling, Chris Masten F: Drew Petrie, Josh Kennedy, Mark LeCras Foll: Nathan Vardy, Sam Mitchell, Luke Shuey I/C: Dom Sheed, Elliot Yeo, Josh Hill, Sam Butler

New faces: Sam Mitchell, Drew Petrie, Nathan Vardy

Missing with injury/suspension: Nic Naitanui (knee, 4-5 months), Scott Lycett (shoulder, TBC), Willie Rioli (hamstring, 7-9 weeks), Simon Tunbridge (knee, 3-4 months), Jake Waterman (foot, TBC)

Notes: Fierce competition for spots makes predicting Adam Simpson’s round one team fraught with danger. The Eagles coach has a handful of toss-of-the-coin decisions to make – not least choosing between whether to play two or three tall defenders. Tom Barrass and Will Schofield can consider themselves desperately unlucky to miss out here, but Eric Mackenzie appears to have Simpson’s nod for round one after playing the final JLT Community Series game. The Eagles only used two key defenders against the Demons in a full dress rehearsal for round one, although that might change against a tall Roos forward line. Nathan Vardy and Drew Petrie deserve to shoulder ruck duties after impressing in pre-season matches, with Jonathan Giles waiting in the wings. A hamstring injury set back Liam Duggan’s claims but he shouldn’t be far away from pushing for the best 22, while Mark Hutchings is extremely stiff after a solid pre-season. Jack Redden’s opportunities have been limited so far but he should be pushing for the best team. – Travis King

Collingwood v WESTERN BULLDOGS, MCG, Friday, March 24, 7.45pm AEDT

B: Matthew Boyd, Fletcher Roberts, Dale Morris HB: Jason Johannisen, Easton Wood, Robert Murphy C: Caleb Daniel, Tom Liberatore, Lachie Hunter HF: Luke Dahlhaus, Stewart Crameri, Jack Macrae F: Clay Smith, Travis Cloke, Jake Stringer Foll: Tom Boyd, Liam Picken, Marcus Bontempelli I/C: Zaine Cordy, Shane Biggs, Matt Suckling, Toby McLean

New faces: Travis Cloke

Missing with injury/suspension: Tory Dickson (groin, test), Jordan Roughead (hamstring, 4-5 weeks), Mitch Wallis (broken leg, mid-season)

Notes: The Dogs should go into round one with 18 of the 22 who played in last year’s flag triumph, with only second-year midfielder Josh Dunkley set to miss selection on form. Travis Cloke appears certain to play his first game in the red, white and blue against his old side with fellow talls Jordan Roughead and Tom Campbell injured. Impressive draftee Tim English is an outside chance to partner Tom Boyd in the ruck. Despite strong JLT form, explosive midfielder Lin Jong looks likely to miss out. Key defenders Fletcher Roberts and Marcus Adams have both had indifferent JLT campaigns, with the former likely to get the nod to face the Pies. – Ryan Davidson

After 246 games with Collingwood, Travis Cloke will run out for the Dogs in round one: Picture: AFL Photos

Big guns return

COLLINGWOOD has picked Ben Reid for the first time in 2017 for Saturday’s JLT Community Series clash with Richmond at Moe.

The All Australian carried a posterior cruciate ligament for most of last season before having surgery and his return will add plenty to the Magpie backline.

Tim Broomhead will play his first game for the Pies since last May, while they have named ruckman Brodie Grundy despite the corked calf he suffered at training during the week.

Josh Smith has also been named despite an ankle injury.

Richmond defender Bachar Houli will step out for the first time this year. The long-kicking Houli has overcome a hamstring in time to get some much-needed match practice ahead of the season opener against Carlton in a fortnight.

Dion Prestia and Shane Edwards also return to the side after being rested last week, while the Tigers squad also includes youngsters Jayden Short, Connor Menadue, Mabior Chol, Tyson Stengle and Ivan Soldo. Among those to miss include Corey Ellis and Kane Lambert.

Adelaide has regained goalkickers Eddie Betts, Josh Jenkins and Mitch McGovern for the game against the Brisbane Lions at Noarlunga on Saturday.

Betts and Jenkins were rested last week, while McGovern was nursing a minor knee injury. Dean Gore (concussion) will miss.

The Brisbane Lions have lost one gun first-year player with No.3 draft pick Hugh McCluggage sidelined for a month with an ankle injury, but have replaced him with his TAC Cup teammate, No.24 pick Cedric Cox, a skilful and versatile half-back. Otherwise the Lions have picked a strong-looking side.

Port Adelaide star Chad Wingard will be rested from Sunday’s hit-out against Hawthorn at Noarlunga. Brad Ebert, Aaron Young, Jake Neade, Brendon Ah Chee and Matt White are among inclusions.

Hawthorn will leave Luke Hodge and Josh Gibson behind, but have brought back Isaac Smith, Paul Puopolo, Shaun Burgoyne, Grant Birchall and Ben McEvoy.

Former Adelaide defender Ricky Henderson is set for his first game in the brown and gold, while the club’s first pick at last year’s national draft, Harry Morrison and powerful Irish recruit Conor Nash are also in the squad.

Geelong regains veteran defender Andrew Mackie for Sunday’s clash with Essendon at Bendigo. Joining him for the trip to skipper Joel Selwood’s home town is defender Cam Guthrie, who has overcome a calf complaint. Lincoln McCarthy has been named for now despite a shoulder injury last weekend.

Essendon has picked its strongest squad of the pre-season, with Zach Merrett, David Zaharakis, Mark Baguley, Orazio Fantasia, Dyson Heppell, Patrick Ambrose, James Kelly and Matt Dea all back in.

Josh Green (foot) and Jordan Ridley (back) are out, while Mason Redman, Dylan Clarke, Jake Long, Heath Hocking and Conor McKenna have missed selection.

The Sydney squad for Sunday’s clash with St Kilda at Lavington features youngsters Oliver Florent, Will Hayward, Robbie Fox and Darcy Cameron, who may be given one last chance to impress before the season opener in 16 days against Port Adelaide.

New St Kilda skipper Jarryn Geary returns, as do Nick Riewoldt, and defenders Dylan Roberton and Sam Gilbert. The Saints have included both ruckmen Tom Hickey and Billy Longer, but it could be a battle for round one selection with coach Alan Richardson yet to declare whether he can carry both players in his best 22.

The final weekend of the JLT Community Series restricts each club to six players on the bench while interchange rotations are monitored for the first time.
